Luang Prabang

It is a great example of the fusion of traditional architecture and Lao urban structures with the colonial influence from the 19th and 20th century. The city is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and it is recognized as the seat of Lao culture with many monuments, monasteries, and traditional costumes as well as being surrounded by breathtaking natural beauty.

Vang Vieng
In the late 1990s, backpackers 'discovered' this little town, Vang Vieng, in the middle of Laos. Located by a beautiful, refreshing river and surrounded by caves, lagoons, and mountains, it was the perfect mountainside getaway. After being rebranded as an eco-paradise destination, the town has reinvented itself as the country's hub of adventure travel, offering a lengthy menu of adrenaline-fueled experiences. This destination is all about hiking dramatic mountains, kayaking through rapids, hot air ballooning through the natural scenery and practicing yoga moves in the serene rice fields.
Visit and explore Wat Kang, Ponies of Vang Vieng, Nam Song River, Wat That, Namsong Bridge, and so much more. -
Vientiane
On the banks of the Mekong River, where Vientiane is located, Laotians center their lives around this mighty river. That is to say that the Mekong River is veritable lifeblood to the Lao people no matter what part of the country they're living. Aside from being the country's epicenter, Vientiane is believed to house a breast bone of the Buddha in Pha That Luang. This great sacred stupa is a major attraction.
Walk around the peaceful Pha That Luang, marvel at the detail of Wat Si Saket, hangout at The Patuxai during sunset, shop at the night market by The Mekong River, meditate with monks at Wat Sok Pa Luang, have a traditional Laos herbal sauna and massage, and so much more. -
Pakse
Pakse is the second most populous city in the country, and many people come here to visit other famous spots like the Bolaven Plateau and the Si Phan Don Islands. As this is a riverside town, you can spend time strolling along the waterfront promenade admiring the French colonial architecture, the colorful markets, the stunning temples and the delicious street food stands that serve fresh local Laotian fare. Wat Phabad Phabat features colourful stupas that serve as funerary monuments. Locals believe Buddha left his footprint on the temple grounds, which attracts devotees from all over the world.
Visit and explore the Vat Phou, Bolaven Plateau, Pakse Market, Wat Phousalao, Wat Luang, and so much more. -
