Pha That Luang ('Great Stupa') is a large gold-covered Buddhist stupa located in the caital city of Vientiane, Laos. Originally dating back to the 3rd century, the stupa has undergone several reconstructions as recently as the 1930s. It is generally regarded as the most important national monument in Laos and a national symbol.

Unalome Symbol in Laos The Unalome is a spiritual symbol. In Buddhism, it is the visual image of reaching enlightenment. The spiral represents our struggle with life, while the upper section is when our path becomes clear and straight, which leads to the crowning pinnacle of enlightenment..
