It turns out that Laos also has its own Angkor Wat

🇱🇦Laos-Pakse-Wat Phou It's like stepping into an ancient mystical realm🌲🌳 The World Heritage Site's evaluation of Wat Phou: "A masterpiece of human culture preserved for over 1,000 years. It perfectly expresses the cultural concept of the unity of heaven and man in ancient Indian civilization, and it epitomizes the development of Lao culture from the 5th to the 15th century, represented by the Khmer Empire." This was originally a Hindu temple, which later incorporated elements of Buddhism. Wat Phou, meaning "stone temple" in Lao, is compared by the Lao people to Cambodia's Angkor Wat, and is regarded as one of the two great cultural treasures. The traditional Lao festival, Wat Phou Festival, is related to this temple. Today, Wat Phou is listed as a World Heritage Site, attracting many people from around the world to visit.
