Cham culture is a unique art treasure, crystallized from centuries of history and cultural exchange. Cham art is clearly expressed through brick tower architecture, symbolic stone sculptures, and soft dances associated with religious rituals and community life. Cham music with the sound of Ghi-nang drums and Saranai trumpets creates a mysterious and sacred sound. Traditional costumes and patterns are both sophisticated and deeply religious. All combine to form a unique artistic whole, reflecting the ability to preserve identity and the enduring creativity of the Cham people.
