Wat Chom Si, a Buddhist temple also known as Wat Phou Si, due to its location on Mount Phousi (fig.) in Luang Prabang.

The temple has an interesting garden and a grotto that display different characters and scenes from Buddhism, such as nagas, Mae Phra Thoranee, and a variety of Buddha images in different poses (fig.).

There are two staircases that lead to the top, i.e. one from the Southeast side, the other starting from the Northwest, opposite of the Royal Palace Museum (fig.).

From the summit there are magnificent scenic views of the entire city and of the Khan River below...

... as well as of the mighty Mae Khong River (fig.), which runs on the northern side of Phousi mountain.
