Showcasing ancient artifacts, the Museum of Cham Sculpture lets you learn about Vietnam’s Cham civilization. A highlight of the museum is the collection of beautiful carvings of gods and goddesses.
Admire sculptures of male and female deities and historical artifacts, some of which are more than 1,000 years old. Art enthusiasts can marvel at art from the ancient Champa Kingdom, then stroll through the halls to see figures carved from sandstone, terra-cotta, and bronze.
Visit the Thap Man Gallery to see statues of Brahma and Shiva and iconic statues of notable gods in the My Son Gallery. Take a step back in time in the Quan Tai Gallery, which houses works dating back to the 7th century. Want to see a 1,500-year-old stone altar? Head to the Tea Kieu Gallery.
