"Memories of a Kingdom Central Vietnam was once the seat of the Kingdom of Champa, which held sway over the area for over 1000 years before being absorbed and annexed by the Vietnamese state in 1832. This fine museum has the world's largest collection of Cham artefacts and is a must visit for anyone with a wider interest in the heritage of the area."

Huge Museum! Make sure you have time to spend here. We picked a rainy afternoon and it worked out perfectly. There is so much to see, they even opened up their storage room to the public to view. So much history and culture is on displayed here. Good historical documentation of the 100 year history of the site and museum also. So very nice that these artifacts are so well preserved and taken care of. Really beautiful all around. Entry fee was 60,000 per person, February 2025 on a Monday.

Almost didn't come here, I have walked past a few times and it really didn't look like much from the outside. But, wow! What an absolutely pleasant surprise! With a detailed history of the Cham peoples, extensive collection of artifacts and relics, and two full floors of displays, it is very easy to highly recommend coming here!!!

The exhibitions of the museum were amazing and terrible at the same time. The audio guide and tags were actually quite informative but the presentation of them was sloppy. And the extra storage room looked like a science classroom. However, because of the sloppiness, you got to examine the artifacts in such a short distance that you’d never experience in other places. And please check out code 6 in the English audio guide. I just loved it so much, and it speaks everything about Vietnam.❤️

Definitely a must to visit. You can spend 1-2 hours there appreciating ancient sculptures. I was shocked to see how some uneducated Chinese were touching and knocking many sculptures checking their endurity and laughing about gods and cracks. I made a warning to one of them about it and was confronted. Security mostly don't care and play phones all the time. It's a pity people have no manners.

Great place with incredible exhibition. I combined this museum with visiting Marble Mountains and Caves. There is a lot to see and learn about the history of Da Nang or just enjoy historical statues and carvings.

Interesting museum which contains the largest collection of Cham artefacts in the world. Little information provided with each exhibit so a tour guide with knowledge of these sculptures is helpful. Central location with easy access. On-site toilets.

Fantastic museum, and much larger than I expected. I was here about 3 hours. Beautiful sculpture displayed simply with some effective lighting, and signs indicating which are the national treasures. There is an audio tour available via QR code in English, French, and Vietnamese that you can use your phone to listen to via the free WiFi, which helped provide context, but there were numerous tours going round in various other languages, and written information on signs for the important pieces. Toilets are clean but a little run down.

Fantastic museum on Cham history and archeology. Visited on Da Nang liberation day so entrance was free, a welcome surprise. Downstairs is all about the Cham archeology and their sculpture, while upstairs is about Cham ethnic history and a brief exhibit about the history of the museum itself. If you are interested in archaeology like me, it's a really fantastic museum that merits several visits. If you aren't into history, I would skip it because you'd be bored like my friend was
