Da Nang's true identity lies before Vietnam, in the Hindu Champa Kingdom that ruled for a thousand years. Centered on the Cham Sculpture Museum, holder of the world's largest Cham sculpture collection, and weaving in French-colonial architecture and a Taoist temple — a deep history-and-art course reading 'the strata of Da Nang's civilization.'
