Project on preserving tower groups E and F financed by the Indian government

The E and F tower group restoration, funded by a USD 4.8 million grant from the Indian government, began in March 2025 and was scheduled for completion by 2029.

The preservation partnership started with a 2014 agreement between the two governments. India has since funded over USD 2.2 million to restore other towers. In 2024, both countries signed a new commitment to continue preserving My Son and Dong Duong Monastery.
