Wat Xieng Thong is one of the most important temples in Laos.\u00a0 It is situated in Northern Laos amidst a beautiful garden on the banks on the Mekong River, near the juncture where the Nam Khan River meets.<\/p>\n

Wat Xieng Thong is one of the country\u2019s oldest temples.\u00a0 Its sim (ordination hall) was constructed in 1560 under the reign of King Setthathirath.\u00a0 There were several legends regarding the spot in which the temple was built on.\u00a0 One legend told of two hermits who set boundary stones near a tree (which is depicted in the rear fa\u00e7ade of the ordination hall).\u00a0 Another legend depicted a betel merchant who built a palace on this site, eventually becoming the first king of Luang Prabang.\u00a0 Finally, a third legend indicated that the juncture where the two rivers meet was home to two notable nagas (serpeant deities) who were the guardians of the rivers.<\/p>\n

Up until 1975, Wat Xieng Thong was a royal temple and a place where the former kings of Laos were crowned.\u00a0 The temple went through many restorations and expansions throughout its history, so it is difficult to determine how it originally looked like.\u00a0 Fortunately though, the temple was spared destruction by the Black Flags during the Haw Wars.\u00a0 This was because the leader of the Chinese bandit group, Deo Van Tri was a novice monk and former student at the temple.\u00a0 Instead of sacking it, he used it as a headquarters.<\/p>\n

The sweeping roofs of the ordination hall define the typical Luang Prabang architectural style.\u00a0 The front ends of the canopy are decorated with complex gold designs on a dark, burnished color background.\u00a0 The columns are a rich lacquer-like black with gold stenciling.<\/p>\n

The atmosphere inside the ordination hall is dark yet impressive.\u00a0 The walls inside the sim also contain black and gold patterns while the beams are red ochre with more gold stencils.\u00a0 There is a large smiling golden Buddha statue, surrounded by smaller images that overlook the area.<\/p>\n

Next to the ordination hall is a small wihan (monastery) where a black reclining Buddha statue rests.\u00a0 The image is believed to be as old as the temple itself, and is highly revered by the locals.<\/p>\n

There is a large elaborate structure across the sim which houses the funeral chariot for King Sisavong Vong, who passed away in 1959.\u00a0 The carriage takes up almost the entire interior with its throne-like gilt frame.\u00a0 In addition to the king\u2019s, there are also caskets for his wife and his brother.\u00a0 There are several standing Buddha images scattered around the room watching over the royal family.<\/p>\n

As well as being the oldest temple in Luang Prabang, Wat Xieng Thong is also one of the most beautiful, making a stop to this site a must if you are in Luang Prabang.\u00a0 You can visit this historic temple along with others in our Essential Luang Prabang<\/a> tour.\u00a0 You will discover the country’s distinctive charm and beauty as you immerse yourself in the splendid natural landscape and cultural sights of Laos\u2019 former royal capital.\u00a0 You can also see our suggested Laos tour<\/a> and Laos day trip<\/a> pages for other memorable trips into this fascinating country.\u00a0 If you would like to tweak any of our tours, feel free to contact us<\/a>.<\/p>\n
