Wat Sen (Lao: ວັດແສນ) also known as Wat Sene Souk Haram (ວັດແສນສຸກຂາຣາມ) is a Buddhist temple (wat), located in Luang Phrabang, Laos.

History

It was built in 1718 by King Kitsarath with 100,000 stones from the Mekong river. It literally means "Temple of 100,000 treasures". It was restored in 1957 commemorating the Buddha's birth 2500 years earlier.
