ルアンパバーンでは早朝の托鉢が知られているが、この寺は観光客の多いメーンストリートではなく、裏道沿いにある。通りの名前は、クンスワー通り。メーンストリーとを托鉢してきた僧侶が午前６時前、寺の前を静かに通り過ぎていく。静かなので、知らず知らずのうちに心洗われる思いになってしまった。 more »

Not known early in the morning alms in Luang Prabang, this temple is the main tourist street, along the back roads. Street names, CNE sway here. Monks have donation and the main story 6:00 before the temple passed quietly. Quiet, so knowing the heart had to be washed.

メインストリート沿いにある寺です。わざわざ行く場所ではないですが、多くの方が観光中に通るエリアにあるので、通る際は少し敷地内に入って見学することをおすすめします。 more »

It is located on the main street. Place to go all the way we recommend that passing is not much better in the pass area, so little into the grounds, observing.

原本寺廟被摧毀了，這是後來鋼筋水泥重建的建築。參觀不用收費，禮拜六造訪，完全沒有遊客及參拜人潮。

Vat Nong Sikhounmuang (signifie Pagode de l'étang) Il fut construit pour la première fois en 1729 dans le style de Xieng Khouang. Mais le Vat fut détruit par l'incendie de la ville en 1774. Reconstruit en 1804, il fut endommagé par le temps et les intempéries. Finalement le temple fut entièrement reconstruit en 1965 en béton armé dans le style Thaï. Ce temple abrite l’une des plus grandes pagodes de Luang Phabang. La pagode est richement décorée de pochoirs. D’un style inspiré de celui de Vientiane, le temple a l’une des plus jolies toitures aux couleurs flamboyantes de style thaï.
