The Patuxai<\/strong>, built in memory of those who died in the Laotian War of Independence from France, is one of the most notable monuments in Vientiane<\/strong>. Its name means Victory Gate<\/em>, Patu<\/em> (door or portal) and Xai<\/em> (victory), and it is a triumphal arch that differs from the one in Paris because the Laotian one has four arches instead of the Parisian one’s two.<\/p>\n\n\n
