Buddha Park, outside of Vientiane, holds an impressive collection of very large Buddhist and Hindu sculptures. Here's the view from the top of the park's highest sculpture.

Haw Phra Kaew was built as a temple during the mid-16th century and once contained the Emerald Buddha (now in Bangkok's Wat Phra Kaew); today it serves as a museum
