2025 Duy Hoa Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in July)

From HoiAn hotel, we chartered a private car which took about 1.5 hours journey. My Son Sanctuary is a complex of ancient Hindu temples dedicated to the worship of Shiva, built between the 4th and 14th centuries in Quang Nam province. It was an important religious center of the Champa Kingdom, where sacred rituals were held and where kings and high-ranking religious leaders were buried. Visiting My Son is an excellent way to explore the fascinating culture that developed in this part of Vietnam until the 14th century. The temples are in good condition and it's a site that you won't find anywhere else in Vietnam. #hoian #myson #hindutemple #Vietnam #thingstodo

We recommend that you prepare cold medicine, intestinal regulators, and anti-diarrheal medicine in your carry-on luggage. 🔹Money At Narita Airport, there are few places where you can exchange money for Vietnamese dong. The exchange rate is not very good, but we recommend exchanging money at the airport when you arrive. It is about 1000 VND for 5 to 6 yen. #Overseas travel #Vietnam #Hoi An #Da Nang #Hue

Roaming the grounds of My Son Sanctuary, so many beautiful ruins around. Some are being rebuilt carefully as they don’t want to destroy or diminish the original ruins of this huge temple. When visitors also come to visit, they are careful not to touch or deface any of the structures. The sanctuary is huge and surrounded by nature, it was really nice to see the structures even in their destructed conditions. A must visit when in Hoi An👍 #freehotelstay #foodies #foodie #historicallandmarks #localguides #awesomepic #urbanexplorer #trip

🇻🇳The Harmonious Hoi An🇻🇳 The name ‘My Son’ means ‘beautiful mountain’ and it’s easy to see how it got its name, with the complex set in moist green jungle beneath a cluster of impressive peaks, the temples, full of history, are carved with the faces of its creators, these are the highlights. The My Son Sanctuary temples survived centuries of time, they survived territorial wars, and they survived years of neglect. What finally destroyed the grandest of them all was American bombs but thankfully not everything was lost. #freehotelstay #foodie #foodies #historicallandmarks #awesomepic #urbanexplorer #falltrip #mytravelhacks #localguides

Here is another introduction to Vietnam's World Heritage sites☺️ In April this year, I went on a motorbike tour of seven of the eight World Heritage sites🛵🛵🛵🇻🇳 The sites I'm introducing this time are about an hour's drive from Da Nang or Hoi An (I went about two hours by motorbike from Hoi An🙆‍♀️🛵) My Son Sanctuary (World Heritage Site, 1999), a sacred place for the Hindu god Shiva in the Champa Kingdom My Son Sanctuary was discovered in 1885 and research and preservation activities were carried out, but it was bombed by the US Air Force during the Vietnam War, and many of the ruins were destroyed, and some ruins look as if they are about to collapse at any moment, so restoration work is still being carried out. At the last rest area, there is a traditional Cham dance show Every day, from 9:15, 10:45, 14:00, and 15:30, You can watch it for 20 minutes at your leisure🥺 I was able to watch it from 14:00😊 In Group G, there are some kind of shows twice a day, at 10:00 and 14:45🙄🙄 (According to the sign, it says it depends on the weather. If anyone knows, please let me know🙇‍♀️🙇‍♀️) ↑As of April 2023 *Group G 12th-14th century Binh Dinh style area You can rent a motorbike from Da Nang or Hoi An to My Son Sanctuary (at your own risk), and there are many taxis and tours from Da Nang and Hoi An, so I think it is a World Heritage Site that you can easily visit😌 #777 #Vietnam #World Heritage Site #World Cultural Heritage Site #World Heritage Site Tour

Location: Duy Phú, Duy Xuyên District, Quảng Nam, Vietnam About 45 mins drive from Hoi An old town, we came to visit the ruined Hindo temples that were constructed between the 4th and the 14th century by the Kings of Champa, an Indianized kingdom of the Cham people (according to Wikipedia :) I have been to a number of Hindu Temples, of which Angkor Wat being the greatest, Bali as well as Thailand Ayutthaya, there almost resemble some similarities in somewhere or what not. My Son Sanctuary was considered a smaller scale with 7 sites, (B,C,D is the biggest complex of the ruins) if I could compare, but it's still worth a visit. Tickets cost 150.000 VND for adults and 40.000 VND for children. There are few ways to get here, but we have hired a local driver that makes our time more flexible to travel from one place to another. I shall share more places that we visited in my next posts. #celebratewithtrip

I mean, it's UNESCO world heritage, so obviously a must see. We booked a private tour with pick-up from Hoi An. Expensive but worth it to have a local guide that can explain everything. We also went very early (8 AM) which is definitely a good idea! No hundreds of tourists disturbing the peace but rather enjoying the sereen environment where My Son is situated. Also the sun was burning already like hell so we were very happy we didn't go any later in the day. the site itself is big with plenty of temples. While all dedicated tot he same god there are differences between them. Lot's of international cooperation to restore the temples which makes it easier to imagine how they would've looked. A real shame that the war damaged so many of them. It would've been amazing to see them while still in one piece! #bucketlistreboot

I visited the My Son Sanctuary in Da Nang, Vietnam! The site is quite expansive, and it takes several hours to explore fully. Since Vietnam is extremely hot, spending a lot of time outdoors can be exhausting! I highly recommend preparing for the heat by bringing sweat protection and staying hydrated. There are scheduled shows where you can enjoy traditional dances, which are definitely worth checking out. If you’re in Da Nang, I strongly suggest visiting the My Son Sanctuary!

🏖️Overview: My Son Sanctuary is located in a basin surrounded by mountains, about 40 km inland from the UNESCO World Heritage town of Hoi An in central Vietnam. This site has a rich history as part of the Champa Kingdom, which flourished through maritime trade from the 2nd to the 17th century. Over 70 brick-built shrines dedicated to Hindu gods remain here, and the site was registered as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1999. 💞Why It's Recommended: In short, it resembles the "Dharma Temple" from the game 'Dragon Quest,' which made me want to visit it. Although the ruins show signs of wear and tear, the brick towers are impressive and worth seeing. The experience is truly exhilarating⤴️. Additionally, remnants of bomb craters from the Vietnam War can be seen in some areas, offering a glimpse into the scars of war. 📍Access: To travel from Hoi An to My Son Sanctuary: I chartered a taxi for $30 USD. Distance: Approximately 40 km Travel time: About 1 hour 🕰️Opening Hours: 6:00 AM – 5:00 PM Posted: June 19, 2025

#SoutheastAsiaTravel #VietnamTravel #DaNangTravel #DaNangRecommendedTravelDestination #MySonUnRelics 🔖 MySon Ruins 📌Thánh địa Mỹ Sơn, Duy Xuyên District, Quảng Nam, Vietnam ⏰ 06:00 ~17:00 ☎️ +84 235 3731 309 My Son Ruins is a precious place where you can experience the history and culture of the Champa Kingdom firsthand, and is a recommended attraction for those traveling to central Vietnam. This place was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1999 and is considered one of the most important Hindu ruins in Southeast Asia, and has deep historical significance.

| A place shrouded in mystery and steeped in history — My Son Sanctuary. Like a pearl sealed by time, it radiates a unique and enchanting glow. Nestled in the lush valleys of Quang Nam Province, about 70 kilometers southwest of Da Nang, Vietnam, My Son Sanctuary is hidden beneath layers of dense tropical foliage. From afar, the verdant vegetation wraps around this sacred site like a mystical veil. Upon stepping inside, you’ll discover it as the most significant relic of the ancient Champa Kingdom and a treasure trove for studying Champa art and its evolution. 🗿 As you enter My Son Sanctuary, the first sights to greet you are the weathered architectural remnants. These temples and towers, though battered by centuries of storms and wars, still stand resilient, whispering tales of their former glory. Their unique architectural style blends Hindu culture with Southeast Asian indigenous elements. The stones are stacked tightly without mortar, showcasing the Champa people’s masterful "brick-laying art." Legend has it that these structures were built with dry bricks bonded by resin from the Cau Day tree, then fired to fuse the bricks and resin, granting them the strength to withstand time’s erosion. 👀 Strolling through the ruins, you’ll encounter exquisite carvings at every turn: graceful Vietnamese apsaras, elegant Vietnamese Venuses, and serene Vietnamese bodhisattvas, all reflecting the fusion of Hinduism and Southeast Asian civilization. Additionally, lifelike sculptures of humans, animals, and even fertility symbols abound, each carving brimming with profound cultural significance, leaving visitors in awe of the Champa artisans’ extraordinary skill and unique aesthetics. 🎭 Notably, My Son Sanctuary hosts captivating Cham dance performances in the afternoon! Dancers adorned in vibrant traditional costumes move gracefully to melodious music, their movements exuding an enigmatic Eastern charm, as if transporting you back to the ancient Champa dynasty. 🚗 For transportation, if departing from Hoi An, you can opt for a private car or join a day tour. We chose the latter, which included round-trip transport, an English-speaking guide, and lunch—affordable and hassle-free. Just remember the opening hours are 6:30 AM to 4:00 PM, so plan accordingly. 💡 Handy tips: Wear comfortable shoes as you’ll walk extensively on uneven terrain. Don’t forget sun protection—Vietnam’s sun can be intense. Try to follow a guide or listen in on tours to fully appreciate the historical and cultural context; otherwise, it might just seem like a pile of stones. 💕 My Son Sanctuary may not rival Angkor Wat in grandeur, but it holds its own unique charm and profound historical depth. Every ancient stone and intricate carving carries a millennium of stories. If you’re passionate about history and culture, come wander here and soak in this timeless allure.

This time I will introduce ruins in Vietnam! This is a popular tourist spot and can also be used as a tour spot. I went alone this time, but the ruins were very large and I was able to take my time looking around, so it was a fun place. I was also glad that I could take beautiful photos. Please go and check it out. Mỹ Sơn Thánh địa Mỹ Sơn, Duy Xuyên District, Quảng Nam, Vietnam Opening hours: 6:00-17:00 #0 yen trip

I went to My Son ruins, which are close to Da Nang in Vietnam. It's convenient to take a taxi from the airport. It costs about 4,000 yen round trip. A short walk from the entrance is the electric cart stand, so you can ride it into the interior. Once you arrive, you can walk around the whole area. An hour is enough to see everything. The ruins are similar to the pagodas in Bagan, Myanmar, but most of them have collapsed. These ruins are also made of bricks, but I couldn't find any information on where the bricks were made. I'll look into it the next time I visit.

The moment I visited the My Son Sanctuary, I was captivated by the mystical atmosphere of the ancient ruins quietly nestled in the deep forest. Located in central Vietnam, this site once flourished as the religious center of the Champa Kingdom, and you can feel the weight of its history. Unlike the Angkor ruins, there are relatively few tourists, allowing you to explore the ruins in tranquility. The architectural style of the ruins is unique, with shrines built from stacked red bricks. Amazingly, these bricks were stacked without the use of cement and have retained their shape for over a thousand years. The surfaces of the bricks are engraved with Hindu gods and legends, and although they have weathered over time, the intricate carvings still convey the craftsmanship of the artisans of that era. Another notable feature of the My Son Sanctuary is the scars left by the Vietnam War. In fact, some parts of the ruins have collapsed due to bombings, making you realize the intersection of historical heritage and war memories. Despite this, the remaining ruins stand with dignity, quietly harmonizing with nature. The area around the ruins is lush with greenery, and if you visit early in the morning, you can witness a mystical landscape shrouded in mist. Walking through the ruins while listening to the chirping of birds, you feel as if you have wandered into a distant past. It is a recommended place not only for history enthusiasts but also for those who want to enjoy the ruins in peace. My Son Sanctuary is not just a tourist destination but a sacred space where history and nature coexist. When you visit Vietnam, be sure to experience the charm of this hidden sanctuary.

My Son Sanctuary🛕 It is a sacred place of the Champa Kingdom that enshrines Hindu gods, which can be reached in about 1 hour and 10 minutes from Da Nang. We took a taxi to get there using Grab. We negotiated with the driver and he waited until the end of the tour. I recommend negotiating! ︎ It was built in the 4th to 13th centuries, but the precious ruins are in a devastated state due to attacks by the US military during the Vietnam War. It seems that the North Vietnamese army used the My Son ruins as an arsenal. There were many bomb marks left. We were able to get a glimpse of the old ruins and the misery of the Vietnam War. Now, restoration is being carried out mainly with the assistance of India (and a little bit of Japan). It was a mysterious space with a mysterious atmosphere. The entrance fee is about 900 yen. It is cheapest to buy tickets at the ticket office on the day. The journey takes about 2 hours. I went in March, and it was very hot, so please take measures against the heat. It might be a good idea to enjoy the Hindu ruins that are unfamiliar to Japanese people? Five Elements Mountain🏔️(6th photo onwards) It takes about 20 minutes from Da Nang. You can get a car from Grab on both the way there and back, so it's not a problem. It is said that Son Goku was imprisoned here. There are several large and small caves. The Five Elements Mountains, which were formed naturally on the plains, are easily accessible from Da Nang and are visited by many tourists. If you want to see the sun shining into the caves, I recommend going by 11am on a sunny day! You can't see them after that. The entrance fee is about 300 yen, and if you take the elevator to the top of the mountain, it's +100 yen, but I recommend climbing on foot. It was like an adventure and it was a lot of fun, so if you have the stamina, please do it! It takes about 1 to 2 hours. ⚠️It's better to avoid wearing sandals or shoes that you are not used to because there are a lot of ups and downs. There are maps everywhere, but please be careful as they are not helpful. If you go to the more crowded area, you will find something lol

Danang My Son Relics

#2024TravelReview #HistoricalSite #WorldHeritage #ChamRuins My Son is a series of abandoned and partially destroyed Hindu temples built by Cham kings between the 4th and 14th centuries AD. The temples are dedicated to the Hindu god Shiva, the most famous of which is the Bhadrapala Shiva Temple. The Champa Cultural Historical Site, listed as a World Heritage Site in 1999, is 69 kilometers southeast of Da Nang. It was bombed during the Vietnam War and only 20 ruins remain. The My Son Sanctuary ruins are mostly built with red bricks, and the temple decorations are cut directly on the bricks. Although many years have passed, you can still feel the delicacy of the work. The brick making method and the mortar connection between bricks are extremely perfect😘, and it is said that it is still a mystery that many experts cannot solve. My Son Sanctuary is an hour's drive from Hoi An. It is more convenient to get there by chartering a car or taking a day trip. The strolling and photo-taking time is about three hours. 🕰️Opening hours: 6:00-17:00 🏖️Atmosphere/Facilities: Classical and beautiful💕 📍Address: Thánh địa Mỹ Sơn, Duy Xuyên District, Quảng Nam, Vietnam 💰Average consumption: Ticket price: 150,000 VND 💞Recommendation reason: It is very good for taking photos, and the photos look very beautiful✨️. Some people also come here specifically to take wedding photos. 🗓️Itinerary: Three hours of sightseeing

A must-see attraction in Vietnam, a bit like Angkor Wat, it is only a short walk away and the scenery along the way is also very beautiful. It is being renovated one after another. I hope that the next time I come, it will be better and I can see more complete ruins.

🌟Highlights: My Son Sanctuary is located in Quang Nam Province, Vietnam. It was once the most important holy site of the Champa Kingdom, and the Cham people's tower-building techniques, stone carving art, and aesthetics are perfectly displayed here. ❤Recommended reason: The temples are built of brick and stone, and have stood for thousands of years. Although they were damaged by war, they still stand tall. After the war, only a few towers survived. Although the scale and craftsmanship may not be as exquisite as Angkor Wat, the overall atmosphere is still strong. 👍Most recommended: My Son Sanctuary has a history of more than 1,000 years and is an important symbol of Vietnamese culture. It is known as the "Angkor Wat of Vietnam."

#0yentravelnovember My Son ruins are the ruins of an ancient dynasty called the Champa Kingdom. Some areas still have traces of the Vietnam War, so it's very educational. However, if the weather is bad, the ground gets muddy and there is no roof, so it's a good idea to bring an umbrella or raincoat just in case! The only way to get there is by car, so I recommend going on a tour!

#AsiaTravelRecord 🇻🇳Vietnam🇻🇳 My Son Sanctuary, a World Heritage Site, can be reached by joining a tour from Da Nang. It is a Champa settlement from over 1,000 years ago. Most of it was destroyed during the Vietnam War, but it is still protected by the people of Champa.

While staying in Da Nang in central Vietnam, I took a taxi to stretch my legs and headed out to the My Son ruins. It's quite hot here in the summer, so I recommend heading out early in the morning. Also, you need to be careful about the heat, as there isn't much shade. There were not many Japanese people, and I got the impression that there were more Westerners. You can also see people in traditional costumes performing traditional dances on stage. It was a wonderful place that left a strong impression on me during my trip to Vietnam, and I highly recommend it. #Vietnam #Da Nang #My Son ruins #Furitabi
