| Art | Binh Lam is one of the most beautiful temples dated to the early style of Binh Dinh. The body is beautified with the Prāsāda-typed niche and the series of five fluted pilasters. The pilasters are, however, devoid of motif decoration, typicl to this period. The central niche obscures the central pilaster, only four pilasters are therefore clearly visible. The flute in the middle of the pilasters is interesting as the flute does not penetrate to the capital, typical to the Early Binh Ding period. The niche is decorated with Kāla-and-Makara gable resembling to Javanese art. The Javanese influence have had an important role since My Son A1 period and still continued up to this period. |
