On my last day I had a few hours to kill before taking the train to Bangkok so I decided to visit the National Museum again. Its right in the center of town and I hadn't been here in several years since I visited it with my friend Phonesay who was a monk at the time. This huge elephant is in the lobby.
This huge brass drum was just unearthed within the last 10 years. It is around 2000 years old.
A jar from the famous Plain of Jars.
Stone monoliths.
A schematic of the etching on the side of the brass drum.
A royal chair about 200 years old. For an elephant.
Life under the French.
The revolutionary era.
Drums and gongs stuck in a hallway.
