Lovely place to spend an hour or so. Hard to grasp how old these towers are considering most old things in Vietnam seem to be demolished in the name of progress. Gardens immaculate and views lovely.
The Po Nagar Cham Tower was built between the 7th and 12th centuries. It was dedicated to the fishermen who protect the sea by praying to the goddess of heaven. They say that this is Xiao Ang, but the scale is small and not so refined. Mottled stone bricks, exotic customs, and the things left by the Vietnamese ancestors are also a cultural treasure of the world. Even if you don't understand the culture here, you will be amazed by the beliefs people have here. I felt very fond of looking at the building outside the door. I felt very exotic. When I entered it, I felt that the building was very old. There were still bodhisattvas in the small door. I went in to light up an incense stick and worship Buddha and I had to take off my shoes before I could go in. Some the devouted people can go inside every room. English name: Po Nagar Cham Towers Location: 2 Thang 4, Nha Trang, Vietnam Tickets: 22,000 VND Tips: You need to wear specific clothes, covering your whole body when you go in, if you wear too short or too tight clothes, you can borrow the robes provided by the scenic spot.

Built between the 7th and 12th centuries, Po Nagar Cham Tower is a Hindu religious building located 2 km north of Nha Trang, on the left bank of the river. Looking down from the hill, you can enjoy the view of the blue harbor. Each tower is a small temple, and you must take off your shoes when you enter the temple, and you need a special dress. There is a free dress next to the temple. In any case, I feel that it is critical to respect local customs. In recent years, there have been more and more people traveling to Nha Trang in China. If someone does not take off their shoes, they will leave a bad impression on the locals. The architecture of
is extremely characteristic. It is said that as early as the 2nd century BC, Hindus built a temple here to worship the Shiva gods. Later, the Kingdom of Poetry built it into a temple dedicated to the goddess of heaven. There are only four temples left, the largest of which is dedicated to the goddess Cham, the mother of the Cham Kingdom who ruled Nha Trang in ancient times. The Hindus called the goddess of the sun, the embodiment of the Hindu Siva. Vietnamese Buddhists call her the goddess of heaven.
The goddess of heaven is the goddess of the southern part of the kingdom of Champo. The goddess of heaven is similar to the mother of the southeast coast of China. Because there are many fishermen here, it has become the goddess of the fishermen.
All the pagodas are brick red, with beautiful reliefs, different shapes and different sizes. This is a very sacred place for the Vietnamese people. If someone climbs the temple, if the staff sees it, it will definitely Stop, so please don't take a few photos to climb the temple, and don't wear shoes to take photos at the door of the temple.

The Po Nagar Cham Tower was built between the 7th and 12th centuries and belongs to the Hindu architecture. It is also translated as the Temple of Heavenly Goddess, because Po Nagar is worshipped here. The goddess has a strong influence in the kingdom of Champo, and guards the local people who eat by the sea day and night, which is equivalent to the status of our Mazu.
On the Po Nagar Cham Tower, the huge stone pillars on the ground floor are very eye-catching. There are 10 large stone pillars and 12 small stone pillars. The middle of the two pairs is the incense of the offering. Close, the mysterious religious atmosphere guides you step by step to discover and discover.

Po Nagar Cham Towers is an interesting enough place to visit for those who love ceramics, or just get carried away with history
An interesting sight of Hanoi. A beautiful old monastery. In one of them, there was an amazing energy of the Goddess Pronagar. I think the place really has magic. Recommended for visiting. Spend no more than an hour watching. There are gray robes at the entrance. It is recommended not to anger the Gods and cover your body with a robe.
Quite a small area but nice to see something different. Don't wear shorts etc if you want to go inside the temples. There is a nice show from some guys and group of ladies, very interesting. There are some nice views of the water round the back of the park. There is also a small gallery and a couple of small stalls. Definately worth the small entry fee.
