Detailing the peculiar Hindu heritage of coastal Vietnam, Da Nang Museum of Cham Sculpture houses the largest collection of Cham artifacts in the world, with exquisite pieces ranging from the 2nd to 15th century CE. Featuring some 300 stone and terracotta pieces, the museum showcases masterpieces of Indic carving and architecture with elaborate ornaments rescued from Angkor Wat and My Son after a week of U.S. carpet bombing in August 1969. The 1919 French colonial building includes a large sculpture garden with highly ornate mythical creatures set in stone. Get one of the audio guides in English (you'll need to show ID), and afterwards browse souvenir replicas of altars and lingas.

Unique museum related to Cham story. Unfortunately, like most of museums in Vietnam, both curatorial content and museology is very poor. Furthermore, there is no air-conditioning, lighting is off so it's quite difficult to really appreciate the story and the collection at its own value.

♿ Wheelchair-friendly place inside the Danang city. The car park entrance is not wheelchair accessible. Ask someone to help. Small area to travel and always keep someone to push your wheelchair. Some Buildings are not wheelchair accessible but you can travel with someone's help. Big ramps were inside the building. Always travel with someone, who can help you. I really recommend it to wheelchair travelers. You have to spend full a day covering the museum. Always ask staff to help. Good toilets. Always use the google translate app to talk with them. Thanks
