In the summer days of June, the Po Sah Inu tower relic on Ba Nai hill, Phu Thuy ward, Lam Dong province becomes a destination attracting a large number of domestic and foreign tourists.
Not only discovering a Champa architectural work with a history of thousands of years, visitors can also immerse themselves in the cultural and artistic space rich in local identity.
From early morning, convoys of vehicles lined up to enter the Po Sah Inu relic site. A new feature at the relic site is an open exhibition space with photos introducing scenic spots, craft villages and unique cultural festivals of the province.
The works are arranged along the road to the tower, creating a lively and emotional journey of discovery.
Mr. Tran Duc Dung, in charge of managing Po Sah Inu Tower Relic, said that changing the arrangement helps tourists both visit and explore the natural beauty and local culture, creating more memorable experiences for the trip.
From only visiting ancient architecture, tourists now also have access to fine arts, culture, and history. The tour becomes therefore richer, especially for students and family groups.
Many tourists appreciate this new organization method. Ms. Nguyen Bich Ngoc, a tourist from Ho Chi Minh City, said that the paintings not only introduce beautiful scenery but also tell stories about life and culture, from images of Cham women next to weaving frames, pottery artisans to the working rhythm of local people.
Besides exhibition activities, Cham folk art performances at the foot of the tower also attract the attention of a large number of visitors.
The sound of drums, the sound of saranai trumpets and traditional dances brought a vibrant atmosphere in the ancient space of the relic.
Artisan Ba Sinh Ty, a member of the Cham folk art team at Po Sah Inu tower, shared that every time they perform at the foot of the ancient tower, artisans feel proud to introduce the cultural beauty of the Cham ethnic group to tourists.
In the sacred space of the hundred-year-old relic, the graceful traditional dances are vividly recreated by Cham girls.
Each soft movement, each rhythmic step not only brings artistic value but also tells stories about the working life, beliefs, festivals and aspirations of the Cham community through many generations.
From a famous historical and architectural relic, Po Sah Inu tower has become an open cultural space, where visitors can learn about history, enjoy art, explore local identity and preserve memorable experiences.
From there, turning heritage into an important highlight on the journey to Mui Ne National Tourist Area and discovering local culture.
