My Son Sanctuary to display G tower
The World Heritage site My Son Sanctuary will open its G tower to
the public and launch a room of artifacts collected from the tower.
The G tower is a unique model for Champa architecture and decoration. The
restoration of the tower has been carried out since 1999 to save it from the
risk of collapse. After 14 years experts have helped restore the tower’s foot
and top to their origins. Debris and artifacts collected from the excavation are
arranged in an exhibition room in the site where tourists can admire the
building techniques of Champa people.
The restoration is a collaboration of experts from UNESCO, Italy, Heritage
Preserve Institute, People’s Committee of Quang Nam Province, local Department
of Culture, Sports and Tourism and the management board of My Son Sanctuary.
The tower’s opening also marks the Quang Nam Festival-A heritage journey from
June 21-26.
