My Khe Beach

When the sun bathes the white sandy beach, it becomes as crystal clear as moonlight. Looking into the distance, the sea and sky merge into one, with white waves surging and seagulls flying and circling lightly. The joyful laughter of people playing happily on the shore can be heard. Occasionally, a sea breeze blows, and the coconut groves sway gracefully, reflecting in the water channels. In the evening, the splendid sky of Da Nang changes into a dreamy purple, so beautiful that it is beyond words.

Cham Sculpture Museum

The museum features numerous exhibitions showcasing Cham sculptures from the 17th to the 19th century. These sculptures vary in style, including Cham deities, animal carvings, architectural decorations, and cultural artifacts. They are primarily made from clay, limestone, and sandstone, reflecting the diversity and uniqueness of Cham culture, making them well worth seeing. Additionally, the museum provides historical background information, photo exhibitions, and introductions to the collections to help visitors better understand the background and significance of Cham culture.
