Mxe1xbbxb9 Sxc6xa1n (Vietnamese pronunciation:xc2xa0[mxc7x90xcbx80 sxc9x99xcbx90n]) is a cluster of abandoned and partially ruined Hindu temples in central Vietnam, constructed between the 4th and the 14th century by the Kings of Champa, an Indianized kingdom of the Cham people.
Mxe1xbbxb9 Sxc6xa1n is located near the village of Duy Phxc3xba, in the administrative district of Duy Xuyxc3xaan in Quxe1xbaxa3ng Nam Province in Central Vietnam, 69xc2xa0km southwest of Da Nang, and approximately 10xc2xa0km from the historic Champa capital of Trxc3xa0 Kixe1xbbx87u.

In 605 AD, the Chinese general Liu Fang led an army southwards from the area of what is now northern Vietnam, defeated the elephant-riders of Sambhuvarman, and sacked the Cham capital, making off with an enormous booty that included over one thousand Buddhist books as well as the gold tablets commemorating the reigns of the previous eighteen kings.

Following the conquest of central Vietnam by Vietnamese emperor Le Thanh Tong which reduced the status of Champa kingdoms to autonomous subordinate regions and the decline and eventual fall of Champa, the Mxe1xbbxb9 Sxc6xa1n complex fell into disuse and was largely forgotten.
