Full description

Our story: We are a local business and our guides are very passionate about the Champa culture, it motivates us to introduce this special experience to true travelers. We avoid repeating touristy activities that are not related to this unique Champa culture, and we focus on creating an experience that helps travelers grasp deeper immersion into the cultural and historical contemplation. This experience not only helps travelers understand deeper into Champa culture, religions and architectures, but also offers the opportunity to experience the unique Champa food in a local restaurant. Travelers will learn from the guide about how much Champa culture still remains in the local community in cultural practices, cuisines, etc… Early morning is the best time to visit this sacred sanctuary. The morning tranquility makes the experience more convenient, atmospheric, and enjoyable. The crowds are kept away and travelers can enjoy the site entirely without worrying the noise and photo bombs. As the temperature is always hot in Central Vietnam, it's better do the visit early before the temperature gets too intense.
