Hundreds of Buddha images in line

Hundreds of golden and marble Buddha statues, all donated by Lao residents, form perfect straight lines after which one reaches the viewpoint of Wat Phou Salao at Pakxé.
The reclining statues of Lord Buddha in the foreground symbolize the Buddha's entrance into Nirvana. The word nirvana in no way denotes a place.
Nirvana is a place of perfect peace and happiness, like heaven.
The origin of the word Nirvana refers to religious enlightenment; it comes from Sanskrit and means "extinction, disappearance" of the individual to the universal. Reaching nirvana means letting go of earthly feelings like suffering and desire.
