The Plain of Jars, located on a plateau in central Laos, gets its name from more than 2,100 tubular-shaped megalithic stone jars used for funerary practices in the Iron Age. This serial property of 15 components contains large carved stone jars, stone discs, secondary burials, tombstones, quarries and funerary objects dating from 500 BCE to 500 CE.The jars and associated elements are the most prominent evidence of the Iron Age civilization that made and used them until it disappeared, around 500 CE.

Thank you Denese for the beautiful postcard and nice stamp.A globetrotter and a time traveler, she was kind enough to send 2 wonderful written/stamped UNESCO site postcard from Laos.
She writes that finding postcard was difficult and searching for Post office was even more difficult. And somehow she could not visit the site.Hope,I am not the cause for the miss. This card is so precious to me for she went through my Blog and searched for my wish cards even with her busy travel schedule.while touring so many countries this time.And,without asking for any postcards in return and of course I will send thank you cards to her.
