The strongest travel live broadcast

Chapter 766 Chapter 766·Heaven and Hell

"If this is really the capital of Laos, it can really be said to be the least capital like a capital!"

"It's not just French-style architecture. I just drove the RV all the way, and I seem to have seen several other styles of architecture, and there are also several countries."

"But I have to say that I originally planned to put the next annual vacation trip in Thailand, but after seeing Vientiane, I came up with the idea of ​​coming here to have fun."

"Compared to the cities we saw along the way, this place is really suitable for tourism, especially because it is close to the Mekong River."

"The Mekong River?!! Hehe, the anchor has come to such a place, you have to be careful!"

"Then this is basically close to the border between Laos and Thailand. Brother Yang has been strolling in Vientiane for a few days, so he plans to leave here directly?"

Indeed, basically every country's capital is extremely rich and modern. The most basic high-rise buildings and dense traffic flow coupled with hurried people coming and going, this should be regarded as the basic configuration.

It's just that in Vientiane, the capital of Laos, these are completely invisible.

When it comes to Southeast Asia, most people's first impression is Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia and other countries, but few people know about Laos.

Some people say that Laos has a mysterious temperament. It is deep in the inland of Southeast Asia, like a paradise. Its folk customs are simple and honest, and you can be elegant and lazy here...

Thinking of such a passage written by a travel blogger I read before, Zhang Yang especially agrees that Vientiane is indeed a weather-beaten but very distinctive city.

The strong single-sided bulletproof glass in the living room, with its excellent transparency, allows Zhang Yanggen and He Xiaoman, who is sitting on the sofa, to clearly see an administrative area in his eyes, and it also makes the two people who are resting eager to see it .

“The capital that is the least like a capital can be said to be Vientiane, Laos. Unlike the capitals of many countries, Vientiane does not have the traffic and high-rise buildings that most of us imagine. As the capital of Laos, there are many landmark buildings in the country. It is a historical witness of Vientiane and even Laos.

In fact, Vientiane is the capital of Laos, but I tend to think it is a tourist city, and it is also a tourist city with its own characteristics.

Speaking of which, most Laotians believe in Buddhism, and most of the scenic spots in Vientiane are mainly Buddhist buildings. That Luang is one of the most famous buildings.

That Luang Temple can be said to be a Buddhist resort in Laos. Among them, the golden Ta Luang is the most famous. It is a 45-meter-high building. It was built in 1566. The body of the tower is beautifully designed in the shape of lotus petals. It is said that buried under the tower Sakyamuni's Buddha bone, today's Taluan was rebuilt in 1953, and the spire is made of pure gold.

The West Sag Temple is a rare historical site preserved in Laos. The West Sag Temple was built in 1818. When Vientiane was invaded by Siam in 1828, it was the only temple that was not destroyed.

The "survival miracle" of that year added a bit of mystery to this ancient temple. One courtyard wall in the temple displayed 6840 large and small Buddha statues, which became a unique scene in the temple.

Of course, in addition to the temple, the most famous thing in Vientiane is the 'Arch of Triumph', which is the one in front of us. The gate is 45 meters high, and it is far away from the Chairman's Palace. The building was erected, whose design was inspired by the 'Arc de Triomphe' in Paris.

From a distance, it looks like a European-style building, but when you look closely, you will find that the detailed design of the Arc de Triomphe uses many traditional Lao patterns.

The reason why I just mentioned these buildings specifically is to tell you that this city is actually more like a historical inheritance city than a city of technological development. Of course, this is also a well-deserved administrative center of Laos. In terms of development The degree is definitely much better than other places, but the development here seems to be more restrained. "

When Zhang Yang said this, He Xiaoman next to him suddenly sighed with emotion.

"Looking for tranquility in Luang Prabang, my husband, should that be the meaning?"

Zhang Yang glanced at He Xiaoman who was sitting next to him in surprise. He didn't expect her homework to be so detailed, and she knew Luang Prabang.

"Yes, about 400 kilometers north of Vientiane, lies the ancient capital of Luang Prabang. This city is the center of Buddhism in Laos and is known as the most peaceful place in Laos. But that is not the destination of our trip. In fact, To think of that ancient capital, you only need to imagine the landscape of Guilin in our country, and then imagine that you can see people or things or things related to Buddha everywhere, and you can imagine it."

This time, Zhang Yang put the destination of his trip to Laos in Vientiane. Besides being close to the Mekong River and being the capital of Laos, what’s more important is that there is the Arc de Triomphe in Southeast Asia. You must know that the Arc de Triomphe here is really impressive from a distance. It's a bit like the Arc de Triomphe in Paris, but if you look closely, it is very Laotian. It has to be said that it is also a place worth visiting.

"This trip to Laos is basically a live broadcast in Vientiane, and then I will leave. For the quality of the live broadcast, I can tell you responsibly that everyone can gain a lot in Vientiane.

For example, the Arc de Triomphe in front of us. It is estimated that many people should have heard this name in other places, but it is from Paris, and this Arc de Triomphe is from Laos. From a distance, the two are a bit similar, but they are brought together. If you look at it, you will find that the two are completely different.

The Arc de Triomphe in Laos stands in the downtown area, and it can be said that it is a bit out of place with the surrounding environment. If everyone knows his real name 'Victory Monument', it may be understandable.

Because it was built to commemorate the Lao people who died in the pre-revolutionary war. In 1969, Vientiane people embezzled the cement donated by the United States to build the new airport and built this monument. Later, this monument was also taken by foreign countries. Known as the 'vertical runway', climb to the top to overlook the panorama of Vientiane.

Of course, there is also a place called Qianfo Temple here, but it is a very symmetrical building, especially if you look down from a high altitude, you will find that it is really beautiful, and all this has to be gone tomorrow Later, I will show you what the beauty of symmetry is.

In fact, the main purpose of my coming here this time is the third place I will talk about next. "

Speaking of this, He Xiaoman next to her also turned her eyes back to Zhang Yang curiously. She knew that she was going to Vientiane and that this was the capital of Laos, but she didn't know why Zhang Yang chose this place. It's just that she didn't ask along the way, and there was no need to ask.

But since Zhang Yang had already said it, He Xiaoman couldn't help asking curiously.

"Oh, what a good place is the third one?"

"That is a place where both heaven and hell exist. It is also a Ten Thousand Buddhas Park. We will know when we go tomorrow. Don't worry, everyone will definitely gain a lot!"

After Zhang Yang finished speaking, he smiled mysteriously, imagining everyone's expressions after seeing the park tomorrow!
