In its golden age, the city was called Buddha Tathagata, the capital city of the capital Vijaya. This is one of the four ancient Champa citadels in Binh Dinh, once the economic and political center of this area from the 8th to the 15th century. Cha Citadel is located south of the Vijaya citadel, now in the territory of An Thanh village, Nhon Loc commune, An Nhon district - Binh Dinh. Located on a high strip of land on the south bank of the Kon River, Cha Citadel consists of two large and small citadels built close to each other (also known as the inner citadel and outer citadel), both with a rectangular plan. In the large citadel area, pairs of citadel walls face each other with negligible length differences. When building, the ancients relied on the direction of the Kon River, so the length of the northern wall was about 100m longer than the southern one. The east and west pair of walls are nearly 350m long, while the north and south pair of walls are nearly 950m long. Except for the north side of the citadel, which was mostly eroded due to its proximity to the Kon River, the remaining sides are relatively intact. In the northwest corner of the citadel area, there are also traces of a rectangular campus, surrounded by a brick mound in which a very large number of remaining bricks and tiles with thresholds and door pillars of different sizes are found. large, especially with many yin-yang bricks and roof tiles - decorative architectural materials only found in the old capital of Champa like Tra Kieu. In this area, people discovered a beautiful bust of the goddess Kabera Yakshini along with elaborate reliefs made of terracotta, proving the real existence of an architecture. urban. The small citadel is located back-to-back with the large citadel in the northwest direction, with a width of 134m and a length of 240m. An interesting thing here is that the creator of this ancient Buddhist citadel deliberately arranged two large and small citadels in a continuous pattern, shown in the fact that the eastern wall of the small citadel is also a part of the wall. To the west of the big citadel, another section is added. In this small citadel, no trace of the wall was found on the north side and it used the Kon River as a moat to create a shield to protect the citadel. This shows that the small citadel was arranged by ancient people as an outpost of the large citadel, a very important waterway transportation route. Citadel Cha is a citadel that also has many other names in folk culture such as Citadel Hoi, Citadel Ho Xu, Citadel Bac, Citadel Cu... but the most common name is Citadel Cha. The large citadel is located to the east. The north side of the wall runs west-east, 947m long, 3 to 5m wide, and currently about 1m high. In the middle of the citadel wall, there is an 8m high mound, gradually sloping towards the two sides of the citadel, called the Flag Pillar Mound. The southern wall has a similar length, but has been eroded, remaining only slightly above ground level. The most visible relics are the two eastern and western walls. The eastern wall runs north-south, is 345m long with an average height of 4m, and the wall is over 30m wide. The western wall has the same length and height, but the surface is narrower, about 7 to 10 meters. The northwest corner of the large citadel is surrounded by two sections of the citadel wall, one running from the Flagpole mound to the south with a length of 240m and a section perpendicular to it running to the west, connecting with the western wall of the large citadel to form a rectangular campus. In the middle of this campus there is a large mound of bricks, the remains of a collapsed structure. The smaller rectangular citadel is located adjacent to the northwest of the large citadel with a length of 440m and a width of 134m. Thanh Cha Relics was ranked a national historical and cultural relic by the Ministry of Culture, Information and Sports on November 27, 2003. Source: National Museum of History

On November 16, 1988, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism issued a decision to recognize Go Da Den as a historical-cultural relic. Kien My is not only a place where Tay Son leaders were attached from childhood to adulthood but also one of the early bases of the Tay Son movement. In 1771, after a period of preparing forces, Nguyen Nhac, along with Nguyen Hue and Nguyen Lu, raised an uprising flag in Tay Son Thuong Dao. In 1773, from the Upper Dao insurgents marched down to liberate the lower Tay Son region and stationed their headquarters in Kien Thanh hamlet, the center of which was Kien My hamlet. This was a wise decision, especially in the early days when the uprising was launched and the force was not yet strong. On the one hand, because this is the homeland of the insurgent leaders, but on the other hand, also very important, is the favorable location of Kien My. Located at the foot of An Khe Pass on the left bank of the Kon River, Kien My is a convenient waterway transportation hub. From Kien My, you can take the road through An Khe, follow the waterway up the river to the Thuong people area, or down to the delta, to the coast. After a short period of consolidating their forces, the insurgent army moved down from Kien Thanh hamlet to capture Quy Nhon citadel, creating a turning point in the entire development process of the uprising. Kien My village - Kien Thanh hamlet, as the headquarters and starting point of the insurgent army moving to liberate the delta, has a very important position. On Kien My land, there are still many historical relics associated with the Tay Son leaders as well as the entire Tay Son movement. In addition to the ancient tamarind tree and ancient well, Truong Trau Wharf also has Palace Garden, Tap Binh Palace, Cam Co Palace, Da Den Hill, and Cut Cu Hill, which are places that reflect the headquarters and barracks of the insurgent army. Go Da Den is a high and wide land. This is originally a wild forest with an estimated area of about 5 hectares stretching from Phu Lac to Bau Dao. In the middle of the mound emerges a very large black rock, that's why people call this mound Black Stone Mound. Time, war, and the revenge of the Nguyen Dynasty, partly because the insurgents stopped here not long ago, so now there are traces associated with the activities of the insurgents, in addition to the places preserved in folk memory. , there is almost nothing left. The area of Da Den mound was reduced to only 2 hectares, because people dug up the soil to make bricks and used stones to build houses. The large black rock has also been chipped into pieces.

Truong Trau Wharf is a large betel trading wharf on the banks of the ancient Con River, in Trau hamlet, Kien My village, about 200m from Tay Son Tam Kiet temple. Betel and areca nuts are a famous product of both the upper and lower Tay Son regions, especially the type of betel grown by the Upper People in the Central Highlands. Truong Trau Wharf became a place of transit and trade relations between the mountains and the plains, in addition to betel and areca nuts, there were also many other essential goods. When Mr. Ho Phi Phuc's family still resided in his wife's hometown - Phu Lac village, in addition to farming, they also participated in trade with the lowlands and uplands, thus becoming rich. His children also continued their father's career, maintaining and expanding trade and exchange. Ben Truong Trau, with its trading exchanges, had a great influence on the uprising career of the three Tay Son brothers, especially Nguyen Nhac. Nguyen Nhac often traveled back and forth to the upper Tay Son region, had close relationships with ethnic minorities in the Central Highlands, and traded with markets, wharves, and towns in the delta. This helped him expand his vision and understand the suffering of people from all walks of life, thereby easily mobilizing and uniting forces to participate in the uprising. After preparations at the upper Tay Son, the Tay Son insurgents under the command of Nguyen Nhac launched a large-scale operation to liberate the lower Tay Son, liberated the Quy Nhon government, and laid a solid foundation. for the movement's next victories. Among that achievement, Ben Truong Trau was an important focal point, where information and correspondence of the insurgent army was connected in the early days of preparing for the uprising, until it reached its peak. Legend has it that next to the old Truong Trau Wharf, Nguyen Nhac built a house to store betel and serve as an inn for betel traders. Therefore, the people of Kien My, as well as many surrounding areas, know Nguyen Nhac as Mr. Hai Trau. After the Tay Son dynasty passed away, Kien My people built on the old house's foundation a temple to worship the three Tay Son brothers, called Vinh Tho temple (also called Cay Gon temple because there is a big tree here). Later, the French colonialists used it as a food warehouse and then destroyed it. In 1963, three Southern mendicants and local people built a small thatched pagoda (on the old temple foundation). In 1967, it was newly built with bricks called Ngoc Binh Vihara. Truong Trau Wharf has now been filled in, only a sandy beach along the river, no longer crowded with boats and the hustle and bustle of preparing for a great career, but "The old tamarind tree, the old Ben Trau..." has go down in history, forever echoing a glorious time.

Go Sanh or Sanh hamlet is the name of a small hamlet in Phu Quang village, Nhon Hoa ward, An Nhon town. Phu Quang people say that while digging land for construction or farming, they often come across areas thick with intact pieces of ceramics of many types such as bowls, plates, and cups. Around the 70s, Go Sanh ceramics followed antique dealers to many regions and attracted the attention of ancient ceramic researchers in Vietnam and the world. In March 1974, an archaeological team from Saigon came to Phu Quang to research. Although there have been no excavations at Go Sanh, they have hypothesized that the owners of Go Sanh pottery are Cham people. From the above information, the Hanoi Institute of Archeology and Binh Dinh General Museum have planned a long-term research program at Go Sanh and all ancient ceramic relics in Binh Dinh. Until 2000, there were 4 excavations continuously conducted at this relic site. Up to now, Binh Dinh pottery kilns have 5 groups. In An Nhon town, there are Go Sanh, Go Cay Ke, and Go Hoi. All of these relics are located along the banks of the Kon River flowing into Thi Nai Bay (Quy Nhon port today) - a convenient location for waterway transportation. Archaeological excavations at Go Sanh were carried out in 1991, 1992, 1993. In 1994, besides Vietnamese scientists, there was additional cooperation from Japanese scholars. Among the kiln sites that have been identified in 5 locations within the former Vijaya region, kilns No. 1, No. 2 and 3 are in Go Sanh. Furnace number 1: Named Cay Quang furnace. The kiln is still quite intact, from the kiln wall, kiln floor and the final fired product of this kiln. The furnace has a tubular shape with a total length of 14m. The furnace chamber is rectangular, gradually expanding towards the end, measuring 1.6m; The width at the front is 2.8m; at the rear and an additional 10m in length. On one side of the oven wall there is a door for loading and unloading products. Furnace number 2: It is called Cay Man furnace (Roi Tree). The kiln area is located in the south of Go Sanh. Technically similar to furnace No. 1 (Cay Quang furnace), the furnace wall is also built of compacted soil bags and the arrangement of fire sharing columns in the burner is similar. Furnace No. 3: Located under furnace No. 2. According to researchers, this is the furnace with the earliest construction date. The wall of furnace No. 3 is not made of burnt shell material but is completely made of earth. The furnace is 1.2m wide near the burner, 1.7m wide at the back. The length of the furnace body is 5.3m. Currently, the Binh Dinh Provincial General Museum collects and preserves a quite rich collection of Go Sanh ceramic products. Porcelain products mainly produced here include enameled bowls, plates, pots, unglazed tiles and architectural decorations. Celadon enameled dishes and brown enameled jars show similar characteristics to the products of Fujian kilns (China). Recent information shows that Go Sanh Binh Dinh ceramics are produced not only for local service but also to participate in the export market to countries in Southeast Asia and further afield, Egypt. Among the artifacts found on the shipwreck in the Calatagan archipelago off Pantanan Island in the Philippines are thousands of Go Sanh ceramics. Some Vietnamese experts believe that the beginning of Binh Dinh ceramic production may have started from the late 13th to the 14th century, or at the latest until the 16th century. The owners of Go Sanh pottery kilns and other ancient pottery kilns in Binh Dinh are none other than the ancient Champa people. Go Sanh pottery kiln archaeological relic site has been ranked by the State as a National Historical-Cultural Relic. Source: Website of An Nhon Town People's Committee

Canh Tien Tower is located on top of a not very high hill in the center of Do Ban citadel, the ancient capital of the Champa kingdom in Nam An village, An Nhon town. In the book Dai Nam Nhat Thong Chi, it is written: "An Nam ancient tower in Nam An village, Tuong Van district, in Do Ban citadel, is commonly called Canh Tien tower. From the shoulder of the tower up, all four sides look like fairy wings, so it's called that name." French researchers, in their own way, call it Tour de Cuvre (Bronze Tower). Towers are a popular architectural form of Champa culture. In Cham language, there is a common word for this type of architecture: Kalan (temple). The main function of Kalan, as the word implies, is to serve spiritual life and religious rituals. However, the tower's architecture is deeply artistic and is a work in which artisans express their talent and creativity, so it is less constrained by religious rituals. Among them, Canh Tien is a beautiful tower, uniquely shaped and elegant with a very reasonable layout. The tower was built tall and imposing on a nearly square plane, each side about 10 meters long with staggered ramps. The entire tower is about 20m high, all four sides around the tower's body are decorated with wall pillars, protruding in a harmonious ratio with the overall architecture. The corners of the tower body are made of large stone blocks so it is quite sturdy. In terms of form, the tower has 4 soaring pointed arch doors opening in 4 directions, but only the main door facing east is connected to the heart of the tower, the rest are 3 fake doors. The slightly protruding frill forms a support for the corner towers above. The carved images are mainly concentrated on the roof. With four existing floors, each floor has 4 decorative corner towers, each corner has small floors, creating a leaf shape that gradually gets smaller towards the top, creating the feeling of birds in flight. Perhaps it is because of this appearance that people let their imagination run wild, associated with the image of a fairy and named the tower Canh Tien. The carved stones in the shape of a phoenix tail mounted on the floors of the fake tower and the image of Makara, a sea monster in Indian mythology with sharp fangs and a long trunk, decorating the corners of the walls give Canh Tien tower a beautiful look. Luxurious, mysterious. Unlike many Cham towers, the decoration of Canh Tien tower is elaborate to the point of perfection. From the door arch system to the flexible, symmetrically layered spiral pattern strips to the delicately carved stone blocks forming connected patterns, all exude a beauty that is both elegant, elegant, and majestic. suspicious, superficial. It is also possible that due to its graceful beauty, the tower also has the folk name of Daughter tower. According to ancient documents, Do Ban citadel was built by Champa king Ngo Nhat Hoan in the 10th century, while Canh Tien tower was built in the 12th century, under the reign of King Che Man (Jaya Sinbavarman III). Perhaps this is the Che Man tower dedicated to Queen Paramecvari, Princess Huyen Tran, the noble Vietnamese girl who put her interests first and formed a historic relationship with him. Legend has it that before leaving Dai Viet, the Tran Dynasty's princess with jade leaves and golden branches learned thoroughly all royal rituals and Champa folk activities. Working as a bride far from home, she was loved and respected by her subjects because this Vietnamese queen not only spoke Champa language fluently, knew how to sing and dance Champa folk songs, but also took the trouble to teach the royal palaces. Women and subjects from their husband's hometown weave cloth, grow rice, embroider, and sew. It is not an exaggeration to say that: Marrying Huyen Tran, Che Man's bride price was the two continents O - Ly, and Canh Tien Tower was the love gift he gave her, as a sacred recognition of his people. .

Emperor Citadel was built by the Tay Son dynasty in 1776 on the basis of Do Ban citadel left by the Champa Kingdom and was officially named Emperor Citadel since 1778. During a long period from 1776 to 1793, The citadel was the headquarters of the Tay Son army and later the capital of the central government of Emperor Thai Duc - Nguyen Nhac. The Imperial Citadel was originally a rectangular architectural complex, consisting of three citadels: the Outer Citadel, the Inner Citadel and the Forbidden Citadel. The outer citadel has a circumference of 7400m. The Citadel, also known as the Imperial Citadel, has a rectangular shape of 430m long and 370m wide. Inside the Citadel is the Forbidden City, also rectangular, 174m long and 126m wide. Through many excavations, many architectural works have been revealed, proving that the Thai Duc dynasty developed on this land. That is the main hall's floor, the octagonal floor with Bat Trang tiles and Champa white stone. The two semi-circular lakes are symmetrical around the octagonal palace, with rows of coral stones and stone steps attached to the lake. In addition to two semicircular lakes, the excavation also revealed a heart-shaped lake. Hundreds of years old fig trees next to Gia Son island. The square well at the corner of the citadel is paved with laterite, but the water is still clear to this day even though over time the plants and trees accidentally cover it. The Imperial Citadel also witnessed battles between the Tay Son and Nguyen dynasties, including the siege battle between the two Tay Son generals, Tran Quang Dieu, Vo Van Dung, and general Vo Tanh in May 1801. Unable to resist the Tay Son army, Vo Tanh self-immolated along with the civil servant Ngo Tung Chau, who drank poison and committed suicide. After the fall of the Tay Son Dynasty, this place became a place to worship the "twin faithful" Vo Tanh and Ngo Tung Chau. Although the Imperial Citadel is only a historical relic, the culture and craft villages around the citadel are still the same as ever. Not as many as the "36 streets" of Thang Long citadel, but around the Emperor Citadel there are still many craft villages bustling with production such as Van Son pottery village, Phuong Danh weaving village, Bang Chau bronze casting village, wood turning village, etc. hats... show a bustling capital with horses, carriages and prosperity, making us feel uneasy thinking about an ancient legend. The citadel was recognized by the Ministry of Culture and Information as a national monument in 1982. Source: Website of the People's Committee of An Nhon town
