Southeast Asia Itineraries: From 2 Weeks to 3 Months

"Pha That Luang is Laos’s most important monument — a 44‑meter, gold‑covered stupa built by King Setthathirat in 1566 whose exterior resembles a fortress and whose interior walls are richly decorated with Buddhist, floral, and animal imagery; admission is around 10,000 LAK." - Matthew Kepnes
