Itinerary
♥ 09.30 Explore Chien Dan Champa Towers (late 10th, early 11th centuries) They are a set of three sanctuaries, facing east, constructed in the late-10th to early-11th centuries by the Champa kingdom. Located on site is a large inscribed stone known as the Chien Dan inscription, which provides definitive evidence that the towers were built during the reign of King Harivarmadeva, though it remains open to interpretation if the king himself sponsored the monuments
At 10.30 Will see Mother of war Nguyen Thi Thu – a woman who lost nine sons, one son-in-law, and two grandsons to the wars. Beyond its profound cultural and historical significance, the monument is also a monumental work of sculpture, recognized as one of the most remarkable architectural achievements of Da Nang City and the country.
♥ 11.30 Discover "Unveiled Secrets of Ky Anh Tunnels: Walk Where History Hides – Ky Anh Tunnels were established and built during the most intense period during the resistance war against America and remains one of the most historic relics today. The tunnels were dug by the resistance side (Northern Vietnam) from 1965 to 1967 and have a total length of approximately 32 km, weaving their way under the villages, going through houses, straw piles, bamboo bushes and canals to create a hidden, underground world so that the U.S army would not be able to detect them. ♥ 13.45 Arrive back your hotel
