This temple is located in the northern Lao city of Phonsavan, the city of "The Plain of Jars". The temple itself consists of a single main hall, in which is located the principal Buddha image, and surrounded by support buildings. The main building was locked when I visited, no idea why. The design is ornate and colourful. Entry to the grounds is unrestricted, though a small donation is always appreciated. The name was transliterated into English by myself via a local.
