Summary:This article aims to examine the architecture and characteristics of sculptures at the Po Ramé temple in Ninh Thuan province, Vietnam. There are the statues of Po Ramé himself, the queen Bia Su Can, the queen Bia Su Cih, a Nandin cow, a linga and a kut depicted more meaningfully.

Therefore, potential directions of preserving those heritages are proposed respectively from short, medium and long term in the future.
