I have visited Vientiane, the capital of Laos, before. This time I visited Laos again during the ‘Visit Laos Year 2024’. My main visit was in Luang Prabang, the old capital of Laos and the UNESCO world heritage city. I also visited Vang Vieng and Vientiane. From pictures shown below, I tried to avoid the most popular scenes that you always find on social media sites. Though it’s quite hard to do so unless you travel on your own and don’t take a tour.
Luang Prabang, Kuang Si Waterfalls
Leung Prabang, the Mekong River and mountains
Luang Prabang, Wat Mai Suwannaphumaham’s gilded relief panels
Luang Prabang’s morning alms
Luang Prabang, the novice monks in Wat Mai Suwannaphumaham
Luang Prabang, the street near Wat Visounnarath
Luang Prabang Night Market
Vang Vieng, Blue Lagoon 2
Vang Vieng, the launching of hot air balloons
Vang Vieng, the Angel Cave
Vientiane, the reclining Buddha at Wat That Luang Tai
Vientiane, the view from the top of Patuxai or the Victory Gate
