Luang Prabang, Lao People's Democratic Republic

Luang Prabang Lao People's Democratic Republic

Luang Prabang, literally: "Royal Buddha Image" is the capital city of Luang Prabang Province in north central Laos. The city is located at the meeting point of the Nam Khan and Mekong Rivers north of Vientiane. The main part of the city is made up of four main roads on a peninsula between the Nam Khan and Mekong Rivers. The city is well known for its numerous Buddhist temples and monasteries. One of the major landmarks in the city is a large steep hill on which sits Wat Chom Si. Luang Prabang has both natural and historical sites. Among the natural tourism sites are the Kuang Si Falls, Tat Sae Waterfalls, and Pak Ou Caves. Phou Si, in the centre of the town, has broad views of the town and river systems, and is a popular place to watch the sun setting over the Mekong River. The Haw Kham Royal Palace Museum and the Wat Xieng Thong temple are among the best known historical sites. Mountain biking is quite common, with people often cycling around the town or to the waterfalls for the day.
