Description: |
|
Wat Souvanna Khili (Wat Khili) was built in 1773).Records
indicate that Wat Souvanna Khili, the "Temple of the Golden
Mountain", was built in 1773 by Chao Kham Satta, a native of
Xianghkouang province to the southeast of Luang Prabang. In his
homeland Chao Kham Satta would have been familiar with temples
built in what are now described as the Xieng Khouang style,
characterised by low roofs, a pentagonal cross-section, and a
"waist" or projecting band around the top of the foundation
(this last element is not particularly developed at Wat Souvanna
Khili). |
