2025 Luang Prabang Province Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in September)

The View Pavilion is a classic, warm wooden hotel located very close to Wat Shaen. It was a relaxing space with the tranquility and calmness that is typical of Luang Prabang. The room I stayed in this time had a calming interior with the warmth of wood and a large balcony. You can spend a relaxing time listening to the birds in the morning and the wind in the evening. And for some reason, the bathtub was right inside the room (lol). This was surprisingly interesting and left a lasting memory of my trip! The location is also excellent, with tourist attractions, cafes, and the night market within walking distance. I was happy that I could come back here in between sightseeing. This hotel is recommended for people who want to enjoy both sightseeing and relaxation. ⸻ 【Basic information】 Hotel name: The View Pavilion Hotel 📍Location: Phousi Road, Ban Khili, Luang Prabang 06000, Laos 💰Price: 1 night for 2 people, about 5,000 to 6,000 yen (breakfast included, varies depending on the season) ◆Facilities: Air conditioning, Wi-Fi, shower and bathtub (installed in the room), balcony ◆Surroundings: 1 minute walk from Wat Shaeng, about 7 minutes walk from the night market, Royal Palace Museum and cafes and restaurants are also within walking distance #Spring 0 yen trip #Laos #Luang Prabang

🐃 Buffalo kaleam: LaosBuffalo Dairy This is a place I have to stop by after missing out 2 years ago. This time, I have to try it. 🍦🐃 At "Lao Buffalo Dairy", the only buffalo farm in Laos, founded by Ms. Suzie Martin, an Australian woman who is fascinated by the charm of Laos, which led to the creation of this buffalo farm. Lao Buffalo Dairy farm milks buffaloes and makes cheese, such as mozzarella, ricotta, and blue cheese, which are sold to hotels in Luang Prabang, as well as ice cream, flavored buffalo milk, and many other products. . You have to try it. The taste is clearly different from regular ice cream. It has a rich and creamy taste and smell that we are not familiar with. If you ask if you can eat it, the answer is yes. #yummy😋 🎯 : Ban Muang Khay, ເມືອງຫຼວງພະບາງ, Laos ⏰️ : Open daily from 9:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. ☎️ : +856 30 96 90 487 #triptravelchina #100traveltips #trip #tripmoments #travellaosbyyourself #laos #travelluangprabang #luangprabang #buffalo

The entire city is registered as a World Heritage Site. As it is a Buddhist city, the city is very peaceful. ○The rice was also very palatable and delicious. The noodles are chewy because they are made with glutinous rice, and the seasoning was not spicy, which I liked. ○Night Market The night market, one of the attractions of the city, has beautifully displayed products and is truly beautiful. Each product is very beautiful and has a handmade feel. I think it is a bargain compared to the airport and other shops, so I recommend buying souvenirs and shopping at the night market. ○Phu Si Hill A hill in the center of the city, it is a wonderful spot where you can see the whole city after climbing for about 15 minutes. The sunset was beautiful, so I recommend going there before that time to get a good spot. ○Kuang Si Falls On the outskirts of Luang Prabang, there is a famous tourist spot called Kuang Si Falls, famous for its emerald green waterfalls. I recommend making a reservation for a bus or something to go there. I went in the rainy season, but other reviews say that the dry season is recommended. Please bring your swimsuit and clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting wet and enjoy playing in the water!

#Natural attractions Another landmark that should not be missed is the Luang Prabang Night Market, which tourists must visit. In addition to selling local products and souvenirs, there are also local shops and restaurants. Including handmade products, art, silk, and many more. For those looking for a place to hang out at night, I recommend this place. 🤙🏻 Journey Young: Jeeni Young 📍: Luang Prabang Night Market | Lao PDR ⏰ The market starts selling products at 5:00 p.m. and closes around 11:00 p.m. #LuangPhabang #TravelLaos #ສະບາຍດີ #ລາວ #Laos #laos #journeyyoung

#Natural attractions here, Luang Prabang, Laos 🇱🇦 Today, we're sharing the morning atmosphere of the morning market with everyone.

I must say that it's fun, unusual, and very enjoyable. For anyone who plans to visit Luang Prabang, this is another landmark that tourists shouldn't miss.

#VisitLaos If you mention the name "Muang Ngoi", this name may not be very familiar to many people. But if you mention Luang Prabang, you will probably say "Ah!" because Muang Ngoi is in Luang Prabang Province. It is a small town in the north of Laos that is still full of nature, mountains, fog, and the Ou River. The villagers of Muang Ngoi work as fishermen and weavers, etc. Muang Ngoi is still very natural because cars cannot reach it and there are no roads. To get to Muang Ngoi, you have to take a car from Luang Prabang for about 4 hours to Nong Khiaw Town. Then from Nong Khiaw, you have to take a boat along the Ou River for about 1 hour. Because it is a small town and not easy to access, Muang Ngoi is a relatively peaceful town with beautiful traditions and culture. Notice that most of the tourists who come here are backpackers. Thais still visit Muang Ngoi very little. One reason is that the transportation is not very convenient. Muang Ngoi has guesthouses, restaurants, dessert shops, and famous products such as hand-woven fabrics made by local wisdom that are colorful and popular with tourists. Visiting Muang Ngoi is like recharging your batteries. There is nothing better than waking up early to have breakfast amidst the mist, mountains and water. #DaddyMomTakesYouTraveling #DaddyMomInvitesYouTraveling #LetsTravel #MuangNgoi #CityOfTheOuRiver #VisitLaos #NaturalAttractions #TheValueOfTravelIsNotMeasuredByDistanceButByHappiness

When talking about traveling to Luang Prabang, Laos, you must walk on this street, Si Savang Vong Road, which is an important street and popular with tourists. 🔅 Si Savang Vong Road is located in the heart of the old town.

It feels like a walking street. You can walk around and enjoy it for a day. You can spend the whole day on this street. #LaosTravel #FollowTheLifeOfALittleGirl #TravelLuangPrabang #TravelAbroadByYourself

Zurich Bread Factory & Cafe is located at the center of Luang Prabang. This cafe provides bread, cake, drink and so on. There are two types of seat which are indoor (they provide you air conditioner) and out door (there is no air conditioner). Moreover, I recommend you to walk to this cafe because it is located next to the street, so it is hard to find the parking area. #Laos #luangprabang #cake #drink #bread

Luang Praphan Station on the Laos-China High-Speed Railway, a project Laos has staked on its national stability. It's a 40-minute shared van ride from the city center, and the fare is 35,000 kip. The station building is brand new and well-maintained. There are only three trains per day to Vientiane. Fares are very reasonable, with a hard seat to the capital, Vientiane, costing less than 2,000 yen. If you use a ticket purchasing agent in the city, the fee is high, so it's around 2,500 yen, which is still quite cheap. Tickets can be purchased up to two days in advance. Only cash is accepted at the station. Only Bcel One Pay is accepted at the city ticket counter. The high-speed train to Vientiane takes just under two hours, while a regular car takes 2 hours and 40 minutes. Considering the difficult bus journey, it's truly convenient. Not only train enthusiasts, but anyone looking for comfortable travel should try the train. #Train #Luang PraphanStation #Travel

Luang Prabang is a great place! It reminds me of old Bangkok, Phnom Penh, and Ho Chi Minh City. You will be greeted by abundant nature and old cityscapes. Time flows very slowly in this city, and it will help you relax after work. If you are interested, please visit! #AmazingView #LuangPrabang

The charm of Laos is the untouched nature that has not been developed into a tourist destination, and the simple and peaceful villages! Even Luang Prabang, a world-famous tourist destination, has an ancient appearance, and the people are really genuine and kind! To experience the charm of Luang Prabang, trekking is highly recommended! There is nothing but nature, and the people you meet are gentle and kind. It will cleanse your soul! Kayaking will also make you feel like an adventurer. Such a healing experience is truly luxurious.

It is another natural tourist attraction in Luang Prabang that is very beautiful. Travelers like us should not miss it. To get there, you have to take a boat for about 5 minutes.

Luang Prabang (Lao: ນະຄອນຫຼວງພຣະບາງ) is the capital city of Luang Prabang Province, Laos, in the northern part of the country. The city is situated on the banks of the Mekong and Khan rivers, which converge at an area called Pak Khan. It is a city that UNESCO has designated as a World Heritage Site. #Laos #Luang Prabang

Luang Prabang in Laos has been a European resort area for a long time. There was a time of French rule, so there are still many delicious bakeries. When speaking to tourists, I got the impression that they were more likely to back off if they said "non merci" than "no thank you". I stayed at one of the several elephant conservation facilities in the area. It was a valuable experience, including helping the elephants bathe in a tributary of the Mekong River. There are usually no direct flights from Japan to Luang Prabang, so I took a connecting flight via Hanoi. I boarded a small Lao Airlines plane in Hanoi, and the emergency warning signs were quite impactful. #trip2022 #Laos #LuangPrabang

Address - Luang Prabang, on Road 13, north of the return route to Vientiane. Take the junction to Ban Aen Sahawan. Atmosphere/Location - The waterfall is on the other side of the Khan River. You have to take a boat to get there. There are boats available all the time. The fee is collected at the same place. Highlights - It is a very clear waterfall. There is a viewpoint. You have to come in October to February to see the water and it is beautiful. The rest is just rock climbing. Average price per person - 20,000 kip, including boat and entrance fee Score - 8/10 #luangprabang #laos #waterfall

A restaurant in the beautiful waterfall atmosphere, not far from Ta Kwang Si Waterfall, Luang Prabang, Laos. The food is Italian and Lao fusion style. There is also a barbecue area (but not available at this time). The price of food is not expensive, starting at about 50,000 kip and up, while drinks are 20,000 kip. In addition, there are wines and other drinks available. #Nature cafe #Waterfall #luangprabang #laos

How to get there - There were 4 of us so we rented a songthaew to and from the city for 250,000 kip, the entrance fee + shuttle train is 15,000 kip. Tourist attractions - It is a beautiful waterfall. During this season, the weather is very good, some days are cold. If you plan to come and play in the water, you should consider the weather. There is not too much or too little water. It is beautiful. We walked in the forest, looked at the green nature and the bear sanctuary, but on the day we went, the bears had all hidden on the other side, so we didn't take any pictures. P.S.: There are quite a lot of mosquitoes. If you like being bitten by mosquitoes, I recommend wearing long pants. 🦟 #luangprabang

Kuang Si Waterfall: If you only have time for one activity in Laos, then this is the place you MUST visit. Located nearest to the city of Luang Prabang in Laos, it is about 45mins drive away from the centre of town. Depending on your budget, there are several ways transport options like shared/private tuktuk, van, motorbike etc. I will recommend to get some help from your hotel to arrange a tuktuk for you. Like the usual attraction, get there early if you prefer less crowd! Swimming are allowed at certain parts of the waterfall, so bring along your swimming gears if you are up for an adventure swim! And respect the “no swimming” zone. And like the photos shown, the water are turquoise in color, and together with the whole foresty background setting, the whole place just looks really magical! This will be a trip you will never forget! #momentssg #scenicspotguide #unforgettableexperiences #hiking #naturalwonders

Visiting the Kuang Si waterfalls is the best thing I’ve done in Luang Prabang, Laos. The turquoise waters cascading into the these tiered pools made of limestone makes it really Insta-worthy! The best part is that you can also take a dip in the turquoise waters at certain allocated areas! But please take note of the signs that says no swimming in certain areas as some of the pools are considered sacred to the locals. There are toilets at the lower levels of the waterfall for you to change. You can also bring some snacks and drinks to picnic at one of the tables there after your swim. Remember to bring along some mosquito repellent though! Opening Hours: Daily from 8am to 5.30pm Entrance fee: 20,000 kip Hike from bottom to top: Takes around 15-20 mins and it’s a easy hike. #hiking #unforgettableexperiences #laos #luangprabang #waterfalls #scenicspotguide

This is the Kuang Si Waterfall, a must-see in Luang Prabang, Laos! If you go up while watching the pandas, there is a beautiful milky-colored waterfall💙 There is also a place to swim, so a swimsuit is a must! #LaosTravel #LuangPrabang #KuangSiWaterfall #Laos

Tad Sae, like many other waterfalls across the world, was built over millennia when flowing water carved its way through the surrounding limestone, leaving beautiful cascades and pools. The fall, which is located near Luang Prabang, is easily accessible, making it a popular destination for residents and tourists wishing to get away from the rush and bustle of daily life. During the dry season, the fall dries to a trickle, but during the rainy season, the enticing water is cool and delightful. There are numerous lounging spaces and seats from which to relax and enjoy the fall foliage in perfect harmony. #popularswing#eventcelebration#hiking#nationalpark#naturalwonders#summervacation#hikingtrails#urbanexplorer
