The Danang area was the center of the Cham Civilization for many centuries. The most ancient capital, Singhapura (Lion Citadel) at Tra Kieu, 40 km southwest of Danang city was built during the course of the 4th century.
The ancient site of Singhapura with its dozens of monuments, hundreds of statues and bas-reliefs, attests to the rich culture of the kingdom which once flourished here.
The sacred Buddhist-inspired site of Indrapura, now known as Dong Duong lies 60 km from Danang. The Site's scattered monuments are engraved with texts about a line of nine kings and their deeds. Many artifacts have been discovered at this site.
