Wat Lao Buddhist Temple

Reviewed By michigander311 - Midland, United States

This was an unplanned, yet pleasant stop. We did not go into any of the buildings or even get out of our truck. We weren't even certain that we were allowed. We slowly cruised through the lot, observing the way they honor their loved ones who have passed. Brilliant colors were everywhere, it was quite interesting, even though we didn't even get out.

Reviewed By MurfB1901 - Hickory, United States

I lived in Murfreesboro for many years but never heard of the legend encapsulated at Hazen Brigade Monument. It is well worth your 15 minute stop to soak in history and imagine yourself there.

There's a monument and a bench. That's it! However, it's a cute little spot that makes for a great photo just to say you've been there.
