day 3:- Morning Visit To Pak Ou Caves
Pak Ou Caves is located as far as Kuang Si Falls from Luang Prabang town but in the opposite direction. I wouldn’t recommend doing them both on the same day as you might get tired from the bumpy tuk-tuk ride.
The caves are located at the intersection point of Mekong River and Nam Ou River. It takes around 40 minutes to ride by tuk-tuk to get there, at the same price as Kuang Si Falls.
There are mainly two caves in Pak Ou Caves, with Tham Ting being the lower cave and Tham Theung being the upper one. You’ll find most of the Buddhist statues in Tham Theung. Rent a torch before entering because there’s no light built in there.
The entrance fee is 20,000 Kip per person.
Getting From Luang Prabang To Vang Vieng
Book your ride to Vang Vieng from your hostel manager or any travel agency offices. The ride costs around 100,000 Kip per person and takes 4 hours.
Day 4 – Vang Vieng
Morning Hike In Pha Poak Viewpoint
Pha Poak Viewpoint is probably one of the most physically-challenging short hikes in Laos. It takes around 40 minutes by foot to get to the entrance and another 15-20 minutes to hike up to the peak.
The viewpoint offers a unique view, with one side facing the Vang Vieng town and another side facing enormous limestone karsts.Hot Pot Dinner In Vang Vieng Night Market
Every town in Laos has a night market, and that includes Vang Vieng. Although it’s not as big as the one in Luang Prabang, there are plenty of food choices here.
Hot pot dinner is one of them. The broth is full of aroma and flavor, and it comes with pieces of raw meat slices and a handful of greens, which you’ll have to cook it yourself.
One meal costs around 25,000 Kip per person. The best way to enjoy it is to have a beer beside and enjoy the dinner slowly after your exhausting day.
this is a beautiful place
