Patuxai Monument photo copyrighted by: Kazuo Lim Khee Boon From a distance, Patuxai looks much like its French source of inspiration.
As it commemorates those who died in the pre-Communist wars, Lao maps label it as Old
Monument, or Ancien Monument in French, Anusawali Kao in Lao, to differentiate it from the
Unknown Solders Memorial which was erected after the revolution.
