Summary edit

Description Having finished with the main cluster of ruins, we now head back out. On the way, near the exit, we come across this relatively large temple which is currently undergoing restoration. This entire region was a hotbed of Hinduism in it's glory days. What happened of all the Cham Hindus you ask? The descendants of the Champa Kingdom , numbering 400 000 - 1 million people live on the boarders of Cambodia and Viet Nam. Today they speak Cham or Cambodian (which they were forced to use after many were massacred by the Khmer Rouge). The Cham often live in villages of about 200 to 300 people. When the Champa Kingdom fell, the Cham who fled to Cambodia converted to Islam (and are now called Balamon or Utsuls). However, most Cham living in Viet Nam are Hindu (called Bani). (My Son, Central Vietnam, Nov. 2016)
