A CULTURAL TRAVEL THROUGH IMAGES

 
LAOS
Luang Prabang
Pak Ou caves

Enjoy this about 2 1/2 hours trip up the Mekong river to the Pak Ou caves where you will find an impressive number of Buddah statues that were rescued into the caves when the chinese invaded the country. The caves are only accessable from the river and are set on two levels. You will find various resturants on the bank of the river across the cave and there you can enjoy your meal while looking at the heavy traffic on the river.
