Luang Prabang - Wat Choum Khong
Luang Prabang, Lao People's Democratic Republic, Augsut 2003. -- Novices rebuild the roof of the Wat Choum Khong (built 1843). Choum Khong was founded by Phakhu Keo in 1843, during the reign of King Sukaseum (1836-1851). The sim was restored in 1933 and 1951, and its decoration was entirely remade in 1962. The doors and added windows in particular were the special project of the Venerable Houmpheng. The sim has also been renovated on several additional occasions in the more recent past.
