Prasat Ban Chang Pi - Arokayasala (Hospital Temple) - Surin Thailand 2024

Prasat Changpee is located at Ban Changpee, Tambon Changpee, Amphoe Sikhoraphum, Surin.

It is a Mahayana Buddhist temple with a simple tower and a rectangular building set inside a stone enclosure.

There is a square pond located to the northeast.

The temple or Arokayasala served as a medical station built by order of King Jayaraman VII (1181-1218). During his reign, 102 medical stations were built across the empire.

The presence of this temple along with other ruins in the area shows it was an important settlement to the Khmer.

The site has been restored a great deal. The top of the center building is missing but it’s still an interesting site to visit if you enjoy seeing these types of buildings.

My Son Sanctuary Vietnam: Amazing Hindu Temples of the Champa Kingdom - Vietnam 2026

My Son Sanctuary, also known as Mỹ Sơn, stands as one of Vietnam’s most remarkable ancient sites and a powerful testament to the Champa Kingdom. Nestled in a serene, jungle-covered valley surrounded by mountains in Duy Xuyen District, Quang Nam Province, central Vietnam, the sanctuary lies roughly 40–50 kilometers southwest of the historic town of Hoi An and about 70 kilometers from Da Nang.

The Thu Bon River flows nearby, enhancing the site’s natural beauty and symbolic significance, as the valley was chosen to represent the mythical Mount Meru, the sacred center of the Hindu universe.

The history of My Son begins in the 4th century, when King Bhadravarman I established the first temples around 380–413 as a sacred religious center dedicated primarily to the Hindu god Shiva, worshipped here under the name Bhadreshvara.

Early structures were made of wood, but after a devastating fire in the 6th century, later kings rebuilt them using durable red brick, a hallmark of Champa architecture. Over the ...

Han Market Da Nang – Vietnam’s Most Iconic Traditional Market Tour - 2026

Han Market (Chợ Hàn) stands as one of the oldest and most iconic traditional markets in Da Nang, serving as a bustling commercial hub right in the heart of the city along the west bank of the Han River. Its name comes directly from its prime location beside the Han River, and it has long symbolized the growth of Da Nang’s trade and daily life.

The market traces its roots to the 1940s when locals began gathering spontaneously along the river to exchange agricultural products, fresh seafood, and everyday essentials in an informal setting. During the French colonial era, when Da Nang was known as Tourane, the area gained more structure with the addition of infrastructure like a railway system called Tourane Marché for transporting goods and surrounding shophouses run by Chinese and Vietnamese merchants. Some historical references suggest trading activity near the river as far back as the 17th century, but reliable accounts point to the 1940s as the start of its modern form.

The market was ...
