via Outlook Traveller, 08 October 2023: I don’t usually post listicles, but this list features a number of lesser-known Cham towers, showcasing a blend of indigenous traditions and Hindu religious practices, making them must-visit sites for anyone interested in the region’s diverse heritage.
The presence of Hinduism in Vietnam can be traced back to the early centuries of the Common Era when traders and travellers from India ventured into Southeast Asia. These interactions led to the assimilation of Hindu religious beliefs and practices into the local cultures. As a result, a unique blend of indigenous traditions and Hinduism emerged, giving rise to a plethora of magnificent temples dedicated to Hindu deities.
