That Luang as seen today. The place is really empty when there is no festival.

I dug up some old photo's I had of my trip to Laos back in 2006. There weren't many people there at the time I was there either. Seems like a waste if there is no one to admire it.

I thought it would actually big bigger but it was kind of small. I wish it wasn't covered with that gold paint either, it would look better as an ancient historical monument in its natural beauty.

There were paintings and artwork all around the walls and old buddha relics also. I felt like indiana jones in the temple of doom.
