Vientiane tourist attractions in Laos

Vientiane tourist attractions in Laos: Taruan, Mekong River, Wanrong, Arc de Triomphe and Xiang Kun Temple.

1, Tarouan

Luan is a unique building that Laos is proud of. It is located in the north of Vatalun Temple in the north of Vientiane, the capital of Laos, 5 kilometers away from the city. It was originally a part of Watarun Temple, but because its importance far exceeds this temple, people usually just call it Talun, a Buddhist holy place in Laos.

2. Mekong River

Vientiane City faces Thailand across the Mekong River. In the dry season, most of the shallows of the Mekong River are exposed, leaving only a small stream in the middle, and people can wade to Thailand. As the capital of a country, it is rare in the world that it is so convenient to reach neighboring countries from the urban area.

3. Wanrong

Wanrong, a tourist and leisure resort in Laos, is located between Vientiane and Ramla, with beautiful scenery and simple folk customs. China is called "Small Guilin" by everyone who comes here.

4. Arc de Triomphe

The Arc de Triomphe in Laos is 45 meters high and 24 meters wide. It is located in the center of Vientiane, close to the Prime Minister's Office and far from the Presidential Palace. 1960 started construction, and 1969 was basically completed. This is a large monument. Surrounded by arched doors and sculptures, it looks like the Arc de Triomphe in Paris, France from a distance.

5. Xiang Kun Temple

The Xiang Kun Temple, also known as the Buddha Park, located on the grass beside the Mekong River, is full of Buddhist and Hindu sculptures, which is a monument to the absurd ambition of an eccentric.
