The Royal Palace Museum was built in 1904 and is located in the city center. It was originally the residence of King Sisavanfong, and then remained the residence of successive kings until the monarchy was abolished in 1975, and the palace was converted into the Palace Museum. The architectural style of the museum combines the classical charm of Laos and the French sentiment. It is a cross-shaped building on a multi-level platform. The entire palace is resplendent and dazzling, and the interior decoration is quaint and luxurious. Entering the main entrance, the first thing that catches the eye is the statue of King Sisavanfeng, and then you will see a golden Buddha. This golden Buddha statue was a precious gift from the Khmer Kingdom to the founding king of Lancang in 1356. As "Brabang", the name of Luang Prabang city comes from this.
