Wat Xieng Khuan

Main attraction of Wat Xieng Khuan is "The Pod", it's looking like a pumpkin, but
at least 8 metres high. Through the open mouth of a "Njak" you can get into the
inner of "The Pod".

Ways to walk round and little ladders lead you up to the top
of it. On the groundfloor you see many sculptures in pain ... the higher you come
the sculptures get less and also the pain they show. That'll be used to show the
growing knowledge.

On the top of the Pod you'll see the "Tree of knowledge" under
"that" tree also Buddha got enlightened.
