Like many prominent dynasties in the world, after its prosperity, the Champa Dynasty only had some exquisite but dilapidated ruins left. My Son is the most important holy place left by the Champa Kingdom. In addition to the buildings, the Cham cultural relics in the My Son Pagoda Temple complex are dazzling, including not only the Vietnamese Feitian, but also the Vietnamese Venus and Vietnamese Bodhisattva. This just illustrates the integration of Hinduism with various civilizations in Southeast Asia after its introduction.

The most amazing thing about My Son is the tower-building technology, stone carving art and aesthetics of Cham artists. ·The Cham people are considered masters in the art of bricklaying. In the Meishan pagoda complex, the size of the bricks is 31×17×5 cm, with uniform hardness. After traveling through a long period of historical time and space, they are still closely overlapped.
