The photo shows a gigantic Reclining Buddha in Buddha Park. Buddha Park is also known as Wat Xieng Khuan and is located in outskirts of Vientiane, Laos. There are a hundred of statues of Hinduism and Buddhism. Laotian word Wat means temple in English, but the place is not a temple, it's a park full of sculpture. Some of them look like humans, some of them look like elephants, not only that, but one of the sculpture looks like a humongous pumpkin. The Reclining Buddha in the photo is 120 meters long. I've heard that the sculpture is not that old as it looks.
