    This news feature highlights the Champa Museum in Da Nang, which has grown to be one of the major museums on the Cham Culture.

    Da Nang museum grows into centrepiece of Cham culture
    Vietnam Net Bridge, 22 January 2010

    Built in 1915 it houses nearly 2,000 sculptures made by the Indian-influenced Cham civilisation that flourished in Viet Nam between the 6th and 18th centuries, with 475 on display inside and in the garden and the rest in its vaults.

    There are some terracotta and bronze sculptures but most are made of sandstone and cover a gamut of styles. They mostly date back to the 12th to 15th centuries.

    The artefacts were found in the central region between Quang Binh and Binh Thuan provinces. They are displayed in 10 halls named after the localities where they were discovered – like My Son, Tra Kieu, and Dong Duong.
