A haven of charm and spirituality in Laos

Step into a world of peace and tranquility at Wat Sisaket, a captivating Buddhist temple nestled in the heart of Vientiane. Built in 1818, this architectural gem is also known as "Wat Sala Ket" or "Wat 16,000 Buddhas," a testament to its stunning collection of miniature Buddha statues that adorn the walls of its main sanctuary. Marvel at the intricate details of these 16,000 stucco or terracotta Buddhas, each a unique work of art and devotion. Explore the impressive golden stupa that stands tall, a symbol of enlightenment and hope. Immerse yourself in the serene atmosphere of the temple, where the only sounds are the gentle chanting of monks and the soft breeze rustling through the trees. Uncover the rich culture and religion of Laos as you wander through the beautifully decorated portico with its intricate columns. Wat Sisaket is a must-visit for anyone seeking a truly unforgettable experience in Vientiane. #temple #wat #buddhisttemple #buddhism #laos
