Po Klong Garai . Tower

Po Klong Garai Tower in Do Vinh Ward (Phan Rang - Thap Cham) is an architectural complex built in the 13th century. Garai (1151-1205) was a Cham king who had great merit in leading the water to enter the fields. When Poklong Garai died, people built a tower at the end of the 13th century to worship him. The tower cluster includes the main tower 20.5 meters high, the fire tower 9.31 meters high and the gate tower 8.56 meters high. Inside the main tower, there is a stone statue of King Po Klong Garai in the form of Mukhalinga and a stone statue of Nadin cow at the entrance. Po Klong Garai Tower is the place where the main ceremony takes place in the Kate festival of the Cham people according to the Brahmin religion in Ninh Thuan which is held around the beginning of October every year.

At the foot of the tower there is the Cham Museum, a souvenir shop selling Bau Truc pottery and Tho Cam products. Like other Cham towers, Banh It Tower, Ponaga ... the management board only sold tickets for visitors to see, and staff arranged to interpret the towers were absent or absent when we stopped by.
