Setthathirath

Setthathirath
The gentleman commemorated by this statue in Vientiane, the Lao capital, is Setthathirath, who became King of several of the regions now forming Laos in the mid-1500s. He successfully fought off invasions from Burma and built many Buddhist structures. Behind his statue is the golden stupa, the Pha That Luang (see also clickable PiP).

HFF, stay safe and best wishes for the weekend, everyone.

Great composition here, george. And I find the natural, relaxed, almost entertained posture of the statue so refreshing in comparison to the pompous, stern versions in western civilisations!

HFF!
