Royal Palace Museum

Also named as Haw Kham, the Royal Palace Museum used to be a Royal Palace and then converted into a national museum, which was built in 1904 for King Sisavangvong after the previous palace was destroyed by invaders in 1887. The site for the palace was chosen so that official visitors to Luang Prabang could disembark from their river voyages directly.

The architecture of Royal Palace Museum has a mixed of traditional Lao motifs and French Beaux Arts styles, whose royal apartments have been faithfully preserved, and offer a fascinating glimpse into the lifestyle of the king and his family and the exhibits include royal religious objects, weapons, statues, screens and paintings from centuries past.

The main buildings surrounding the palace consist of Haw Pha Bang, Royal Barge Shelter, Conference Hall, etc.
