Champa culture had great influences on Vietnam’s cultural values of significance. The former capital of the Champa Kingdom from 4th to 15th century was My Son Sanctuary in Quang Nam province, central Vietnam
This is a large complex of religious monuments
originally consisting of more than 70 structures but only the vestiges of 25
remain today
The builders of My Son were the nobility of the Champa
Kingdom who derived their cultural and spiritual influences almost exclusively
from India.
The Cham people belong to an ethnic group in Southeast
Asia. They formed the core of Muslim communities in both Cambodia and Vietnam.
This archeological site represents the longest continuous
occupation for religious purposes, not only of the Cham Kingdom, but also
within Southeast Asia as a whole.
