Review & FAQ:

This early 20th century palace was built for King Sisavang Vong and the royal family in 1904, after his previous palace was destroyed. Like many other buildings built during the French colonial period, the architectural style of the Royal Palace Museum comprises both French and Laotian components. Inside, visitors will find the Laotian crown jewels, the former apartments of the Laotian royal family, and many murals, paintings, and works of art that depict life for Laotians in the early 20th century. In the garage, there are several classic cars that once belonged to the Laotian king, and several other fascinating exhibits display jewelry, weapons, statues, and other artifacts that once belonged to the royal family.
