Tourists rising early in the morning will see the alms giving ceremony – one important religious activity in Luang Prabang. If you would like to watch the dawn, you should come to the recommended place at the crossroads in time, around 05.00. This place provides a nice spot to enjoy the dawn, and also, you can see the monks from temples walking in the line and receiving the offerings from the Buddhists. 

In the morning, our tour group starts going to Phousi Mount, a favorite spot to overlook the panorama of the beautiful city Luang Prabang.

After that, we go down the mountain to arrive at Vat Xieng Thong (also known as the Temple of the Royal City). This temple is not just a stunning construction with skillful patterns, paintings, but it contains a spiritual meaning of the religion. 

Next, we head to one temple, which is highlighted by the unique structure of the earliest Lao style – Wat Visoun. Built in the 18th century and located near the alluring Royal Palace; Wat Mai is a full-of-art temple, which is also the most gigantic, the most being decorated with expensive ornaments. This is our next destination to explore, to learn regarding the art of the previous generations.

Then, we will transfer to one hottest tourist attraction in Laos: the Khuang Si Falls. With crystal blue water and over 5-meter-high cascade, tourists will fall in love with the unspoiled beauty and can help themselves splashing in the refreshing water. Moreover, the way getting to Khuang Si is also a pleasant ride, which is through the endless rice paddle field and small rustic villages scattered along the road.
