Toupna, meaning a hut in the rice field, serves as place of rest for farmers
It is located at Natures Sanctuary, Ban Phao, Hadxayfong District, Vientiane, less than 10km from Vientiane’s center
Toupna depicts the mythical Tai bamboo stilt house, described in an ancient Dai folktale involving a lord and a golden phoenix
Built with bamboo from the forest and straw from the fields, the fabled house conveys tranquility and harmony with nature
