About
Hitre informacije: Stepping into the cool, shadowed galleries feels like entering a stone storybook, where over 300 sandstone sculptures and reliefs whisper of rituals, kingship, and ordinary lives. Curators highlight subtle carving techniques and surprising traces of original pigments, making visitors linger to trace naga coils and weathered faces under soft, directional light.
Vrhunci: Step into a cool, sun-filtered courtyard where ancient sandstone faces stare back and you can hear the echo of a guide softly tapping a 1,200-year-old statue to demonstrate the hollow sound that proves its Cham origin. Run your fingers along the weathered relief of a smiling apsara and notice the faint red ochre smudges locals still regard as ritual offerings, a small living trace that makes the stone feel unexpectedly warm.
Insider tips
- Wear comfortable shoes, gallery floors can be uneven and there are steps between rooms.
- Visit early to avoid tour groups and to get soft side-light on the carvings for photos.
- Head to the central open-air courtyard and the high-window gallery for the most photogenic reliefs.
- Bring small-denomination local currency for tickets and donations, and skip the gift shop if short on time.
