Laos > Places & Sights > Plain of Jars
The Plain of Jars contains huge jars, the biggest as high as three meters with a diameter of 30 centimeters and weighing up to six tons. Their origin is not known, although archaeologists mostly agree that they have been made by megalithic Austronesian people.
Unfortunately, many have been heavily damaged by heavy bombing by the Americans.
The plain starts 4,5 kilometers east of Phonesavan, extending as far as Lat Sene, some 30 kilometers to the south.
