Description: |
|
The Royal Palace Museum in Luang Prabang (also known as “Haw
Kham” or "Golden Hall") was once Laos’ Royal Palace. It houses a
lot of interesting historical items. Every item tells a
story...so you will learn quite a lot about Lao history and
about Laos’ royal.
Built in 1904, it features a blend of
Lao traditional and French style. It was built for King Sisavang
Vong and his family during the French colonial era.
After
the death of King Sisavang Vong, the crown Prince Savang
Vatthana and his family were the last to occupy the palace.
After the revolution in 1975, the building was taken over by the
government. The palace was then converted into a national museum
and opened to the public in 1995. |
