Po Nagar Cham Towers

Po Nagar (Tháp Bà Ponagar) is the most significant Cham religious site in southern Vietnam — a complex of four towers on a granite hill above the mouth of the Cai River, built between the 7th and 12th centuries and dedicated to the Cham mother goddess Yang Po Inư Nagar. Unusually for a Vietnamese historical site, the towers are still actively used for worship: Vietnamese Buddhists, ethnic Cham Muslims, and Hindu devotees all come to pray at the altars inside, filling the incense-thick interior with offerings of flowers and fruit. The main tower, at 23 metres, is remarkably well preserved and contains a black stone statue of the goddess.

Entry approximately 22,000 VND. Open daily 06:00–18:00. Located 2 km north of the city centre on the north bank of the Cai River — 10 minutes by taxi or 20 minutes on a bicycle along the riverside road. Dress modestly (covered shoulders and knees). Best visited early morning before tour groups arrive.
