That Dam was originally reported to be covered in gold which was stolen by the Siamese when they invaded in 1827. There may some truth to this story as the Siamese invaders stole the gold which covered the important most temple in Vientiane, Pha That Luang. The Black Stupa is seen as monument to the massive destruction brought upon the city in 1827 during the invasion, although some question the central premise of the story that That Dam had actually been covered in gold at some time in the past as little in known about the origins of the stupa which suggests that it was never a significant enough religious site to merit the massive investment that would have been required to cover it in gold.The black is said to be the result of the siamese invaders burning Vientiane.
