Vang Vieng, a very small town in Laos, has become a hub for outdoor activities thanks to its karst topography that forms numerous small peaks, the 'Li River'-like Nam Song River, and the blue lagoons... Activities such as hot air ballooning, paragliding, cave tubing, kayaking, mountain biking, road go-karting, and blue lagoon diving have flourished, but the most attractive is still the Nam Song River. The houses along the Nam Song River, set against the backdrop of the karst landscape, are particularly charming. The river flows swiftly, often stirring up waves, but it is not deep, mostly covered with pebbles, making it very clear. Even without engaging in any activities, just drifting along is absolutely comfortable. However, it is best to avoid the midday sun.

From Luang Prabang to Vang Vieng, I finally feel like I'm in Southeast Asia. ❤Reason for recommendation: Most travelers come to Vang Vieng for its beautiful mountains and waters and a wealth of outdoor activities. Hot air balloons, paragliding, go-karts, zip lines, cave exploration, diving, kayaking, tire drifting, no matter the age or gender, the love for fun will be released here. 👍Most recommended: The caves here are not overly developed and maintain their original state. The exploration of the caves is full of unknown adventures with only headlamps for lighting. 👍Most recommended: If you think the kayaking arranged by the travel agency is just a simple paddle and photo session, you're mistaken. This is a project that requires skill and physical strength, a real hour of hard rowing. 🌟Highlight: Diving requires courage. Standing on a 5-meter diving platform is indeed daunting, but bravely jumping down will win applause from the surrounding spectators.
