Royal Funeral Carriage at Wat Xieng Thong in Luang Prabang, Laos
King Sisavangvong ruled the Kingdom of Luang Prabang from 1904 until he was deposed in 1945. The following year he was reinstated and remained the monarch of the Kingdom of Laos until his death in 1959. This beautiful funeral carriage, which has seven nagas on the prow, is in the Royal Funerary Chariot Hall called Hor Latsalat. His ashes are in the center urn. The remains of his father, King Zakarine, are in the front.
