Fanciful Champa towers
15:28', 7/7/ 2009 (GMT+7)

The central province of Binh Dinh is home to eight groups of Champa towers, located in Phu Cat, Tuy Phuoc, An Nhon, Tay Son and Quy Nhon.

In the city of Quy Nhon, visitors can see Thap Doi (Twin tower) on the bank of Thi Nai lagoon.

Around 30km from Quy Nhon is Banh It tower complex in Tuy Phuoc district, which comprises four small towers located on a mountain next to the Kon River.

Heading to the north, visitors will see Phu Loc and Canh Tien towers on high hills. Canh Tien tower is inside the ancient Champa citadel of Do Ban. Some history books say the tower was the gift of Cambodian King Che Man to his Vietnamese wife, princess Huyen Tran.

Other towers are Binh Lam in Tuy Phuoc district, an unnamed tower on Ba Mountain in Phu Cat district, Thu Thien and Duong Long on the two sides of the Kon River.
