Xieng Thong Temple of the Lan Chang Kingdom's solid timeline

Opening hours: 8:00-17:30 (also visited at six in the morning) Ticket: 20000 Kip (one ticket can be used for two days) Etiquette: Do not turn your back to the Buddha, do not dress revealingly, avoid sleeveless or vests in the temple, and cover your elbows and knees. The Xieng Thong Temple, built by King Setthathirath in 1560, is the most magnificent temple. Before 1975, it was a royal asset, and the location of the royal palace was also close to the Xieng Thong Temple. The main hall of the Xieng Thong Temple represents the classic Luang Prabang style. The inlaid 'Tree of Life' pattern can be seen in many cultural products related to Luang Prabang! To take a picture of the wall with the Tree of Life, it is recommended to come in the morning when the light is behind, or after four in the afternoon. Because at noon, the Tree of Life is facing the light, and the eaves will cast a huge shadow. Despite the small-scale destruction by the Black Flag Army in 1887, it has regained its former glory with the sponsorship of the royal family and the French government!
