    My Son Sanctuary

    I will introduce about the Mỹ Sơn Santuary


    You are standing in front of one of the two world cultural heritages of Quang Nam
    province with ancient cultural and architectural values still preserved over the years.
    This is the largest and most beautiful ancient tower in Quang Nam, an architectural
    work classified / clet si phai đờ/ as beautiful in the world. My Son Sanctuary has a
    total of 13 /thớt tin/ groups of works with more than 70 / seven ty/ architectures of
    temples and towers, to this day, despite being ravaged / rá vịt dờ/ by rain and bullets /
    bú lịt/, it still retains the architectural art of sculpture . sờ cup trờ/ to the culture of the
    Cham people after experiencing it over a thousand years. 
    The architecture of My Son Sanctuary with its unique and sophisticated design is
    divided into 6 typical types. This relic / ré lịc/ was forgotten until 1898 / ết tin nai ti
    ết/, when a Frenchman and his colleagues discovered the relic hidden in the forest, in
    the heart of the surrounding valley / vé lì/ protected by two majestic / mơ jet tic/
    mountains. Walking in the relic, we will see the Linga - Zoni set and also the
    worshiping statue of the ancient Champa people.
    In addition, another special impression that makes My Son Sanctuary site famous is
    the brick used to build the ancient towers.The bricks of the Cham people are lightly
    fired, so they are not very hard, and have many different sizes.The bricks are fired and
    cut into blocks, then cleverly stacked without the use of any binders./ bái đờ/
    As you can see, the Sanctuary consists of two opposite hills. Right at the intersection
    there is a stream, the stream becomes the boundary dividing this place into four areas. 
    Now, follow me to see the inside of the temple with your own eyes. It is not as wide
    and airy / é ờ ri/ as we often think, but its space is narrow and lacks light because only
    believers and clergy / c lơ gi/ can enter. Here, we can learn about the origin,
    architecture, and culture of the ancient ChamPa people through vivid / ví vịt/ and eye-
    catching images that make it easy for you to approach. /ơ p râu chờ/
    It’s a pity that our group came to visit at the wrong time when the atmosphere of My
    Son was the most bustling. If lucky to come on the right occasion, in addition to
    discovering the above unique relics, visitors also have the opportunity to participate in
    the special Kate festival of the Cham people, which takes place at the tower with
    rituals /rí truo/ of praying for peace, palanquin / pa lơn kin/ procession, water
    procession, vestments and Kate. And yet, there are many cultural performances of
    ethnic musical instruments, and dances of very flexible and skillful artists, typically
    the magical Apsara dance.
    The My Son Sanctuary complex is a masterpiece / mát tơ pịt/ of human creativity /cri
    ây tí vơ ti/ , a living and unique evidence /é vi đừn/ of the cultural traditions of the
    Champa civilization / ci vơ lai zây sừn/. Therefore, we need to raise awareness of
    preserving and protecting this world cultural heritage.
