The famous temple Wat Po Chai is the home of golden Buddha image that is highly revered by Nong Khai people.
The mural paintings in the walls of the main hall are artistic representations of historic events.
On 10 July I crossed the Thai-Lao friendship border bridge at Nong Khai to visit Vientiane.
Wat Phra That Luang in Vientiane - Laos. The original stupa was said to be built in circa 236 AD
to house the relics brought from India. Current temple is the renovation made in 1566 AD.

In the evening I came back to Nong Khai where my friend was waiting.
At sun down we left Nong Khai for Bangkok in a sleeper train.
