Indrapura — known today as Đồng Dương, in Quảng Nam province — served as the capital of the Cham kingdom from 875 to 982 AD, founded under the Buddhist king Indravarman II of the Bhrgu dynasty. The name itself means "City of Indra" in Sanskrit, a reference to the Hindu god of storm and war. The site sits within a wider region ringed by UNESCO World Heritage sites, making it a point of historical interest for those already exploring central Vietnam.
