Le Van Duyet Tomb 1 (Tim Doling)
There are estimated to be over 3,000 listed cultural and heritage sites around the country, the great majority managed by local authorities with limited funds and expertise in the field of heritage conservation. These sites include three Khmer vestiges over 20 extant Chăm tower complexes, numerous ancient citadels, hundreds of temples and pagodas and an assortment of revolutionary vestiges, all of which are increasingly promoted as tourist attractions.
