The Most Beautiful Temples in Danang, VietnamnMy Son SanctuarynThe My Son Ruins are a cluster of Hindu temples constructed sometime between the 4th and 14th centuries by the Champa civilization that once extended over a large part of coastal Vietnam. The ruins often get referred to as the Angkor Wat of Vietnam, though they are far from being as gigantic.nnThis UNESCO protected complex was once of religious and political importance and is now abandoned and unused—you won’t see any active worshiping or religious visitors. Over time, these temples have been destroyed, but only by human forces. You will even spot a few bullet holes as you step over stones and finger the cracks. The temples are, however, still standing since inception, and visiting these will let your mind wander back in time, picturing these enchanting ruins once full of life.nnHead over in the morning to avoid the flocks of tourists.nnMy Son Sanctuary, Duy Phú, Duy Xuyên, Quảng Nam, VietnamnnCao Dai TemplenCaodaism is a movement that began in Vietnam in the early 20th century, and in Da Nang, you will find the second largest Cao Dai temple of Vietnam, serving about 50,000 devout followers. This religion is based on all the major religions of the East and West, from Christianity and Islamism to Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism, which is why you will find a sign hanging behind the main altar with the words reading, van giao nhat ly, or “all religions have the same reason.” Behind these letters are representations of the founders of five of the world’s greatest religions: Mohammed, Laozi, Jesus, Buddha and Confucius. Behind the main altar sits an enormous globe with the divine eye symbol of Cao Dai, watching over its followers.nnThe premise of Caodaism is that all religions are ultimately the same. With this belief, the Caodaists seek to promote tolerance throughout the world.nnThe most prominent part of the pagoda is the statue of the Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara (Goddess of Mercy), which is the highest of its kind in South East Asia, standing at 220 feet (67 meters) high. If you climb all the way to the top, you are rewarded with panoramic views, the boundless sea and primitive forest surrounding the pagoda. Go in the evening for the sunset.nnLinh Ung, Hoàng Sa, Thọ Quang, Việt Nam, Đà Nẵng, Vietnam

The mountain is a network of caves and pagodas used in religious services and to hide troops during the Vietnam American war. Far more than just another temple, this is one place worth visiting even if you've seen a million temples. Wandering through caves, with faint aroma and music, dimly lit statues was an awesome experience. Try to come early, the place is packed with tourists later in the day. #vero #travel #thailand #vietnam
