My Son

This site comprises a concentration of ruins of the Champa kingdom, and was active between the 4th to 13th centuries. It is another link to the Southeast Asian civilations that were influenced by Indian culture which flourished in those times, such as Angkor https://pbase.com/gaiyang46/angkor_wat/ Borobudur, Ayuthaya and Bagan. This site has survived pillaging and war through the centuries, the last being the heavy American bombardment in order to flush out Viet Cong insurgents who used it as a base.
