Luang Prabang Holidays


asia
With a wealth of history, a beautiful riverside setting and a tranquil laidback charm, this UNESCO listed former royal capital is an enchanting place to spend a few days. Wake to misty mornings, accompanied by the gentle rhythm of drums and chanting as the city slowly comes to life. Considered the spiritual heart of the country, you will see many monks wandering through the streets in their saffron-hued robes or collecting alms at dawn, and it's well worth taking an early stroll to experience this evocative city at sun rise.

Luang Prabang boasts many other attractions and you could easily spend several days exploring the gilded temples, which are scattered amid charming colonial buildings, dining in the excellent restaurants and wandering through the vibrant markets. A little way outside the town you will find a number of natural wonders including the striking turquoise waters of Kuang Si Falls, the Pak Ou Caves and several elephant sanctuaries.
