Giant reclining Buddha in Laos
Vat That Khao, also known as Wat That Khao in Laos, is a Buddhist temple in Vientiane. It's across the street from the Royal Park and Don Chan Palace on Fa Ngum Quay. Vat Phiavat, Vat Si Meuang, and the King Sisavang Vong Monument are all nearby.
This location is adjacent to Vat That Luang, which is considered to be Laos' most sacred and revered site. Luang was founded in 300 BC and is considered the most sacred since it has a sacred relic in the form of Buddha's breastbone. That Khao is said to be a gorgeous and magnificent reclining Buddha in the shape of the largest Buddha in Laos.
