Grave at Wat Phonhthanh Tai--Vientiane









Grave at Wat Phonhthanh Tai. These graves contain just ashes and bones, though sometimes even nothing, I've noticed. Yesterday, I stumbled onto the end of a cremation at Wat Hosantinimit. The deceased's family were placing incense sticks and flowers around a recognizably human shaped ash figure on the ground. At his feet was a can of Beerlao, a can of Nestcafe Espresso Roast, a bottle of Tigerhead water and a nearly finished cigarette.
