The color of That Luang looked really sharp with the blue sky
The golden stupa rising in the center is That Luang. Although its authenticity is uncertain, it is said to have been built by a monk from India in the 3rd century A.D., so it has a long history. It is the representative stupa of Laos.
The shining figure under the sky stands out even from a distance, as there are no large buildings around it. It is the symbol of Laos, and is even depicted on the national emblem. When I visited, the sky was clear blue. The color of the sky was a clear blue, and it matched the color of the golden stupa.
