Dieser Tempel ist ein sehr alter mit sehr schönen Wandgemälden. Diese Art von Bildern sieht man nicht leicht in anderen Tempeln. Die Bilder erzählen eine kleine Geschichte, die man von den Einheimischen erzählt bekommt. Der Eintritt ist zwar frei aber man sollte was spenden, damit solche Tempel erhalten bleiben.

kleiner hübscher Tempel, gratis Eintritt, schöne Wandmalereien -- auf jedem Fall sehenswert! Man kann ein kleines Mitbringsel kaufen, eine handgemachte Postkarte und spendet somit dem Tempel!

It's just up the first set of stairs off the street, heading toward the mount hill. It's a very old temple that Is being restored by a French development aid fund. The murals inside it are amazing it's worth visiting.

Le Vat Pa Huak (1861)(Nom : Monastère de la forêt de fins bambous)
Construit en 1861 au pied du Mont Phousi, en face du Palais Royal, le Vat Pa Huak est un petit temple qui passe presque inaperçu. Pourtant il possède, en façade et à l’arrière, des ornements sur bois de toute beauté. Le motif central représente un Bouddha chevauchant un éléphant à trois têtes, monture légendaire du dieu Indra dans la religion hindoue. Il a récemment été restauré de façon un peu clinquante (ajout de miroiterie) par une équipe thaïlandaise. L'intérieur renferme d'intéressantes fresques du 19ème siècle, également restaurées, commémorant une ambassade chinoise en visite à Luang Phabang et d’autres évoquent le miracle de Jambupati et sont éclatantes de couleurs. Il a servi de bibliothèque de 1945 à 1975. Style thaï.

Wat Pa Huak (1861) (Name: Monastery of the thin bamboos forest)
Built in 1861 at the foot of Mount Phousi, opposite the Royal Palace, Wat Pa Huak is a small temple which passes almost unnoticed. But it has, on the front and back, beautiful wood ornaments. The central motif is a Buddha riding a three-headed elephant, legendary mount of God Indra in Hindu religion. It was recently restored in a somewhat flashy (adding mirrors) by a Thai team. The interior contains interesting 19th century frescoes, also restored, commemorating a visiting Chinese Embassy in Luang Phabang and others evoke the miracle of Jambupati and are bright of colors. It was a library from 1945 to 1975. Thai Style.

Situated on a small hill on Sisavangvong Road, opposite of Haw Prabang and the palace Museum, Wat Pa Huak founded in 1861 has its small sim (อุโบสถ) with the old painting on the wall inside. The old wooden carving facade (หน้าบัน) , poles and doors are weathered and deserted. But they are great; do not miss this historical site if visiting Luang Prabang.

There are military and domestic scenes as well as fine images of flora and fauna.
