Ms. Nguyen Hai Yen - a tourist from Hanoi said that the first time she came to Ponagar Tower, she was really overwhelmed by the ancient and mysterious beauty of this place. Not only are the towers silently bearing the mark of time, Ponagar Tower also contains within itself a strong vitality of Cham culture. Enjoying the art program "Linh Thieng Xu Tram" in the form of a semi-real scene was truly a memorable experience for her. Mr. Nguyen Van Nhuan, Director of the Department of Culture and Sports of Khanh Hoa province, said that these two programs are the result of close coordination between the Provincial Monuments Conservation Center, the Provincial Department of Culture and Sports, the Traditional Arts Theater and the Hai Dang Song and Dance Troupe. Not only to preserve cultural heritage, the two programs also contribute to creating more attractive tourism products as well as developing the local night-time economy.

Ponagar Tower is a typical architectural complex of the ancient Champa Kingdom, built from the 8th to the 13th century. Initially, it was the center of worship of the Goddess Ponagar of the Cham people; from the 17th century, this place gradually became a place of worship of Thien Y A Na Thanh Mau of the ethnic communities living in the South Central region. In 1979, Ponagar Tower was ranked as a National Historical - Cultural Relic. In 2012, the Ponagar Tower Festival was recognized as a National Intangible Cultural Heritage. This is the pride of the people of Khanh Hoa, and at the same time a symbol of the exchange and blending of Vietnamese - Cham cultures in history.

Organizing two regular monthly programs not only helps preserve traditional cultural values ​​but also plays an important role in the tourism promotion strategy of Khanh Hoa province. Thereby, introducing the beauty and cultural depth of Ponagar Tower to domestic and foreign tourists.

Moreover, the two programs also evoke cultural pride, helping the local community to better understand the value of heritage. These programs are not only entertainment activities but also a way to express the "bridge" between the present and the past, between people and heritage, creating a vivid and sustainable cultural picture. With the combination of preserving cultural heritage and sustainable economic development, "Linh linh xu Tram" and "Trang soi huong thap" bring unique experiences to visitors, demonstrating the efforts to preserve and promote the cultural values ​​of Khanh Hoa province.
