Museums
Opening hours: 08:00-11:30, 13:00-15:30(Tickets available until 15:00)
ariel423:“The Luang Prabang Royal Palace Museum is located in the center of the old town of Labang, at the foot of Mount Phousi. The ticket price is 30,000 kip. The palace was built in 1904 and has been the bedroom of successive kings. It is now a museum for people to visit. The palace enshrines the Labang Buddha and there are many exhibits to visit. However, long sleeves and long pants are required to enter the palace. The landscape and greening in the courtyard are also quite good and worth a visit. It seems that there are also wonderful performances at fixed times.”

M36***00:“Xiangtong Temple is a more famous tourist punching place in Laos. There is a large tree on the exterior wall with a sign on the important building of Xiangtong Temple, which draws many Buddhist stories, and is also auspicious place for the Lao people to make wishes and ask for Buddha.”
Alms Giving Ceremony in Luang Prabang
5.1
4.5/5125 Reviews
Open tomorrow at 05:30-06:30
ariel423:“More than a decade ago, I wanted to go to Luang Prabang because I was attracted by a photo of alms. Now I finally have the opportunity to go. In order to see the alms, you need to get up early. The weather is super hot in summer. The only advantage is that it is bright when you get up early. After watching the alms, you can go directly to the morning market. Alms are the monks accepting food from people, but the monks only accept the amount they need, and then give the extra food back to other poor people who need it more. Feel the baptism of the soul and the power of faith in the simple ceremony.”

M28***39:“The whole town is in full view. It is recommended to go there when it is almost sunset so that you can see the beautiful sunset of the town. But you have to go early. If you go there at a certain time, there will be many people and no good seats.”

Sisavangvong Road

4.2/562 Reviews
Open year round, 24/7
兔子6:“Laos Foreigner Street is an old and romantic street. Many buildings here were built during the French colonial period, so it also has a French flavor. There are many family hotels in this area. You can choose one to stay in, feel the quiet temple world during the day, and go to the night market on Foreigner Street at night.”
Luang Prabang morning market
4.5
4.8/515 Reviews
Open tomorrow at 05:00-12:00
走遍天下XZ:“After attending the early morning monks' almsgiving activities in Luang Prabang, people usually go to the morning market in the city center.
The morning market is on a small street, with all kinds of stalls on both sides, some with wooden boards, some selling on the ground, and some slightly larger shops.
It feels completely different from the impression of the vegetable market. First, it is relatively quiet and orderly, without the constant hawking. Second, it is relatively clean, without the stench and sewage. Third, the clothes are very neat and generous, the image is decent, and there are many young people. Fourth, the goods are abundant and dazzling, covering almost all aspects of life.
There are also many things on sale that we don't usually see, such as mice🐭…”
Luang Prabang Old Quarter
4.3
4.8/514 Reviews
Open year round, 24/7
走遍天下XZ:“Luang Prabang is definitely the most beautiful city in Laos!
It was once the most glorious ancient capital of Laos and the most carefully built city by France in the entire Southeast Asian colonial zone. The perfect combination of ancient Buddhist culture and modern French romance has made the United Nations list the entire city as a World Cultural Heritage Site.
But if you just walk through the city, you may not know the true face of Mount Lu because you are in the mountain. You must climb Mount Phu Si to see the whole picture of Luang Prabang.
Most people go up to see the sunset on the Meikong River in the evening, but if you go up the mountain earlier and overlook the entire city of Luang Prabang in the opposite direction, the sun is setting in the west, and the light at this time is the most beautiful.
The whole city is hidden in the green trees, and the French villas with red and yellow roofs are particularly charming. Surrounded by mountains in the distance, the clear river water in the near distance is set against the blue sky, and the curling smoke is also floating everywhere...
Luang Prabang at this time is the most romantic time!”
