The Plain of Jars

---

The Plain of Jars is named after the large stone "jars" that are scattered over the countryside. A bit of a Laos stonehenge, its not exactly clear what hey were used for.

The area was heavily bombed by the US in the 60's & 70's and there is still loads of unexploded bombs found in the ground. The area around the jars had been partially cleared but we had to stick to the main footpaths.
