More Mỹ Sơn

Another image from the ruins of Mỹ Sơn in Central Vietnam (see Mỹ Sơn). The brickwork and statuary is so beautiful, and it had lasted 500 - 600 years and survived several dynasty changes – and then some fighter planes dropped bombs on it. Our planes. Wonder if the pilots aimed for the temples? Or even knew what was down there? Sigh.

More Mỹ Sơn

One more image from the ancient Hindu ruins at Mỹ Sơn in Central Vietnam (see Mỹ Sơn).  It seems I always visit these beautiful ruin complexes in the drizzling rain. The forests are greener, the stones are redder, my feet are wetter.
