The second photo from the left is the old front entrance, which then faced Wat Nongbone -- the photo was taken on 24 January 2009.

The third photo from the left -- "the stairs to nowhere" -- was taken on 13 June 2009.

The new photos (the four on the right) were taken on 19 October 2011.

I have lived in Vientiane since 1992. This place has always been a lot of fun.
