The first thing in the morning there is a short guided tour of the city’s oldest temple, Wat Sene, and the magnificent Wat Xieng Thong with its roofs sweeping low to the ground, a classic example of the architecture of Luang Prabang Temples.
We then board a boat and cruise up the Mekong River, the boat ride gives us a chance to breath in the beautiful views of the tranquil countryside of Luang Prabang, before arriving at Pak Ou Caves. Exploring deep in to the fascinating and mysterious Pak Ou Caves, you will find it crammed full of thousands of gold lacquered Buddha statues.
