Description: |
|
The elegant Presidential Palace of Vientiane dates back to 1973,
serving as the royal residence of the Royal Lao government.
Designed by local architect Khamphoung Phonekeo, the building
was only completed and opened in 1986 due to the political
change and takeover of Pathet Lao in 1975.
The Presidential
Palace became the venue for government functions and ceremonies.
While closed to the public, it usually attracts photographers
with its imposing but elegant Beaux-Arts architecture, tall
colonnades, shaded balconies, and wrought-iron gates.
