'Hindu temples of erstwhile Champa Kingdom, Vietnam' - by K J S Chatrath


A few days back I visited MySon the site of erstwhile Hindu Kingdom of Champa in Central Vietnam. MỹSơn is a cluster of abandoned and partially ruined Hindu temples in Vietnam, constructed between the 4th and the 14th century by the kings of Champa.

The temples are dedicated to the worship of Lord Shiva, known under various local names, the most important of which is Bhadreshvara. My Indian heart was chuffed to see a board announcing that these temples are being restored with the help of Archeological Survey of India.
