Adjacent to the Russian Embassy in central Vientiane is the Buddhist Temple of Wat Aummone. The central Sim is quite graceful as the roof is supported on a series of thin pillars with the main hall located up a flight of stone stairs. The pillars give the effect of a veranda giving good views across the temple compound. The Meeting Pavilion for the lay people is also unusual in the fact that the coloured mural around the sides of the Hall are carved in relief.
