Sala Keoku Thailand
Good place to see art there. It's quite interesting and not see to find kind of this art in this part of Thailand. Better to bring an umbrella with you.
a Lots of statues, some of massive scale. It was 20 THB for Thai people and 40 THB for international people. Well worth the price of admission and the trip.
Plus, there's a part of the water in there where you can feed big fish. And I mean *big*.

6 Things You Must Know Before Going to Sala Keoku Sculpture Park
The only place worth visiting in the small border town of Thailand, Loei, is Sala Keoku Sculpture Park. It is said to be created by the same creator as the Thousand Buddha Park (Wat Xieng Khuan) across the river in Vientiane, so the styles are similar.
👉6 things you must know before visiting
1⃣It is said that Sala Keoku Sculpture Park was created based on the creator's dream memory. The large and small Buddha statues in the park, many of them have skulls on their heads, their faces are fierce, and their styles are completely different from the usual benevolent style of Buddha statues. It feels gloomy to be in it, like walking in the ghost domain, so it is necessary to choose a sunny day to go.
2⃣The most convenient way to get there is to use a taxi app to book a motorcycle (more than 5 kilometers one way is about 70 Thai baht)
3⃣There are also buses from Loei Bus Station, but if the place you live is far from the bus station, there is no need to bother.
4⃣Opening hours: 8:00—18:00
The park charges 20 baht for locals and 40 baht for foreigners. The ticket office closes at 5 pm, and you can enter and buy tickets from the ticket inspector after closing.
5⃣It is recommended to visit in reverse order from left to right to perfectly avoid tour groups.
6⃣Respect local beliefs, don't wear revealing clothes and shorts or skirts when entering.

Lan Khaen Province in Thailand is a small town in the north of Thailand, separated from Laos by a river
Lan Khaen Province in Thailand is a small town in the north of Thailand, separated from Laos by a river, which is the Mekong River. Most tourists use it as a transit station to go to Laos from here. Few tourists come to travel. Lan Khaen City is located on the south bank of the Mekong River. Later, the Lao-Thai Friendship Bridge made it one of the somewhat busy commercial centers in the northeast, but it still retains the quiet charm of the riverside.
Sala Keoku is a sculpture park (about over 20 meters high) located in Lan Khaen, Thailand. The park is the work of the mysterious Bu11nleua Sulilat (1932-1996), who bought this land when he fled from Laos in 1978. It evokes a synthesis inspired by Buddhism and Hinduism, with sculptures of Buddha, goddesses, Naga snakes, and various half-human, half-animal figures.
The original site of Sala Keoku was an ancient Brahman temple. The founder, Luangpu, was born in Lan Khaen. As a child, he fell into a mysterious cave and met an ascetic monk who told him about the multi-layered hell and taught him about Buddhism and Hinduism. Therefore, the sculpture park is named after this monk, Kaewku. Luangpu began to build this garden in 1978. His works attracted many fans who provided materials and labor for free to create this weird and magical landscape with him.
The park has more than 200 large cement statues, including Buddha statues, Bodhisattva statues, and Hindu god statues. On the stele of each sculpture, there are inscriptions in Lao and Thai explaining the works and concepts.
The Seven Dragon Buddha: It tells the story of the Buddha enlightening the big snake. The Buddha encountered heavy rain while practicing under the Bodhi tree. The big snake crawled behind the Buddha's head to shelter him from the rain. Address: Enter Sala Keoku on Bolt, it's closer to take a taxi, between 100-150 strains, the ticket is 40 strains/person
