    The National Museum is now housed in the former royal palace.
    The Wat May temple in the Royal Palace grounds was founded by King Anourouth in the late 18th century.
    However, construction of the pagoda only began during the reign of King Manthatourath in 1821. It was completed 70 years later by King Sakkarine.

        The Royal Palace of Luang Prabang is a series of French colonial-style buildings dating back to 1904. Today, the Royal Palace has been converted into the National Museum of Luang Prabang. The grounds of the Royal Palace of Luang Prabang, formally Haw Kham, include the National Museum, the theater, and the striking Haw Pha Bang Temple.
