Buddha Park, also known as Wat Xieng Khouane Luang, is a unique sculpture park located outside Vientiane, Laos, featuring over 200 religious statues and images, predominantly Buddhist and Hindu. The park can be explored independently, allowing visitors to wander and discover its eccentric artistry at their own pace; however, guided tours are available for those seeking deeper insights into the symbolism and history. Accessibility is somewhat limited due to uneven terrain. The ideal time to visit is during the dry season (November to April) for pleasant weather. Expect to spend approximately 2-3 hours exploring the park, with an entrance fee around $2-3 USD. Transportation to and from Vientiane is an additional cost, typically via tuk-tuk or taxi.
