So we are back in Laos to do some work on a selection of table runners and decorative pieces. As always we like to share a bit of this wonderful country with you and this day we checked out the beautiful old temples in the city of Vientiane, each of them so rich with their own histories. Laos has the dubious honor of being the most bombed country in history. In fact its estimated that more bombs were dropped on Laos during the Vietnam war than were dropped during the entire second world war. For this reason, to see the oldest temples like the original Wat PraKeo (Emerald Buddha Temple) and Wat Sisaket still standing and to be able to walk the grounds my ancestors worshipped at so many years ago was definitely a coming full circle experience for me.
