Pak Ou Cave - Luang Prabang
Full Day Excursion
Itinerary
 |
• Visit Vat Xieng Thong, considered as the most beautiful
temple. The sim of the Vat represents the classic Luang Prabang
temple architecture with roofs that sweep low to the ground.
In the compound stand several small chapels housing bronze
Buddha images, which were displayed in Paris in 1911. Near
the East gate stands the Royal Funeral Chapel. Inside are
an impressive 12-meter high funeral chariot and various funeral
urns of each Royal Family’s member. The gilt panel on
the exterior of the chapel depicts a semi-erotic episode from
Ramayana.
• Then board a traditional riverboat for a trip upstream
the Mekong River to visit the famous caves of Pak Ou housing
thousands of statues representing Lord Buddha.
• Picnic lunch at a bamboo cottage overlooking the confluence
between the Mekong and Nam Ou rivers.
• Return to Luang Prabang by boat with a stopover at
the village of Ban Xhang Hai, which produces local rice wine.
• Continue by car to visit Ban Phanom, a weaving village
populated by Thai Lu that originally came from Sipsongpanna
in Southern China.
