Vat Sisaket is famous for not only its cloister wall storing thousands of tiny Buddha images but also its beautiful architecture and layout with history dated back to 1818.

Vat Phra Keo, built in 1565, is one of the most impressive and interesting temples in Vientiane. It previously housed the famous Emerald Buddha image.
 

Pha That Louang (built 1566 and reconstructed 1930) is the most important Laotian religious and national monument, respected by all Lao citizens as holy pagoda. The temple has a unique architecture reflecting Lao culture and identity, becoming a symbol of Lao nationalism.

Patuxay (the memorial monument) was built in 1957 and is the most prominent landmark in the city. The architecture of the monument was inspired by the architecture of the “Arc de Triomphe” in Paris and combined with typical Lao motifs. From the top of the monument, you can see an excellent panoramic view of the city.
 

Buddha Park is home to hundreds of Buddha statues and an enormous Buddha image which is 40m in length. Take your time to explore its unique statues with different size and shapes of human, Godheads and animals.
