Wat Si Saket is a historic Buddhist temple in Vientiane, famous for its vast collection of Buddha images and its unique cloister wall. The temple features a serene main hall with a large Buddha statue, but the highlight is the surrounding cloister, which contains thousands of small Buddha images in niches. Visitors can also see a library and a bell tower. The temple's age and the sheer number of Buddha figures make it a distinctive and peaceful place to explore.
