It's truly captivating to explore the Cham Towers of My Son in Vietnam! This UNESCO World Heritage Site showcases 10 remarkable towers, which were constructed between the 4th and 14th centuries. Serving as religious temples dedicated to the god Vishnu, each tower holds its own unique charm. Tower A, the largest and most well-preserved, was likely built in the 11th or 12th century. Tower B, crafted in the 13th century, stands out for its intricate carvings and statues. Meanwhile, the smallest tower, Tower C, is considered the epitome of beauty, adorned with mesmerizing reliefs depicting elephants, lions, and dragons. Additionally, the Tra Kieu Citadel, constructed in the 2nd century, adds another layer of historical allure to My Son, as it once served as the capital of the Champa Kingdom.
