It is well-known for its extensive collection dating from the seventh to the fifteenth century. Recognized as a national first-class relic by the Vietnamese Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, the museum is regarded as an architectural gem of Southeast Asia. More than 300 sandstone and terracotta artifacts are now on display. The sculptures were collected from Cham temples and towers throughout central Viet Nam. Although profoundly influenced by the architecture and sculpture of the Indian civilization, the Champa had their own vision of life and religion. This brought to their sculpture a subtle and distinct beauty. The Con Market was constructed in the 1940s, was rebuilt in 1985 and renamed the Da Nang Trade Center. It is one of the city’s major markets and is still known locally as the Con Market. It welcomes an average of more than 11,000 customers every day.
