949 VN - My Son Sanctuary (1999)

Brief Description

"Between the 4th and 13th centuries a unique culture which owed its spiritual origins to Indian Hinduism developed on the coast of contemporary Viet Nam. This is graphically illustrated by the remains of a series of impressive tower-temples located in a dramatic site that was the religious and political capital of the Champa Kingdom for most of its existence."

圣子修道院
"公元4世纪到13世纪,一种独特的文化在现在的越南边境地区得到了发展,这种文化的宗教起源是印度教。由占婆王国作为宗教 和政治首府时所保存的一系列庙宇和殿堂生动地说明了这一切。"
