Located on the banks of the Mekong River, this monastery is famous for the carved wooden panels that adorn its doors and windows. From the original place of worship, destroyed in 1827 by the Siamese, only an imposing bronze Buddha in a seated position remains. Several statues of elephants adorn the courtyard of the enclosure. There is also a beautiful image of a Buddha calling for rain, the last remnant of a series of mural illustrations also destroyed during the multiple invasions. About twenty young monks live within these walls.
