Some more pics from Sala Kaeo Ku
Couldn't find many on the forum, so here are some of my photos from Sala Kaeo Ku, the biggest attraction in Nong Khai (about 10 minutes out of town actually).
Here you can see how the massive statues are made, a shell of reinforced bricks decorated with cement. Unfortunately means they won't last long, so get along and check it out while you can : )
