Itinerary
At 8.00 am – 8:30 am: Our driver and Guide will pick you up at your hotel in Hoi An center and depart to My Son Holy Land to explore and research.
At about 9:30 am-11:30 am: Arrive at My son sanctuary and start to visit My son
In My Son Holy Land, the towers and tombs have been dated from VII century to XIV century, but archaeological findings show us that the Cham kings were buried here since IV century. The total of buildings are more than 70 towers including small, normal and large towers. My Son Sanctuary supposedly is the religion center and culture of the Champa Ancient Kingdom.
Most of the buildings were built of wood, but they had been destroyed since the 6th century in fires. In the 7th century, My Son was restored by Sambhu Varman who rebuilt the temples with special bricks which have existed until now. Up to the 13th century, more than 70 similar temples had been built, establishing My Son as a sanctuary of Hinduism in the Champa Kingdom. Although scientists have been conducting research for many years, they still do not know the secret of how to make those bricks and build those towers.
