KRISTINA.

The capital of Vientiane, Laos, is 45 meters high and 24 meters wide. It is located in the center of Vientiane. It was built in 1960 and was basically completed in 1969. It is a large monument. Originally to commemorate the victims of the war. When the liberation in 1975, the Vientiane City people celebrated the victory by the parade from here, to commemorate this historic event and call it the Arc de Triomphe. The Arc de Triomphe is surrounded by arched doors and carvings, and looks like the Arc de Triomphe in Paris, France. The Vientiane Arc de Triomphe is a typical Lao temple carving and decoration. It is full of Buddhist carvings and shows the traditional culture and art of Laos.
