Thap Canh Tien, Hindu temple in Bình Định Province, Vietnam.

The brick-stone composite temple stands on a small hill surrounded by rice farms and forests, approximately 25 kilometers from Quy Nhon city.

Built between the 12th and 14th centuries during the Vijaya era, the temple demonstrates architectural elements from both Champa and Khmer building traditions.

The temple structure includes intricate sandstone carvings depicting Hindu deities, along with detailed columns, claddings, and arches representing religious artistic expressions.

Visitors can reach the temple site by taking a road trip from Quy Nhon city, with organized tours available for those seeking additional historical context.

The square-plan temple faces east and originally contained a vestibule called antarala, though this section no longer remains part of the structure.
