Majestic Laos 5 Days 4 Nights
Laos is a magical country, with a
timeless, sleepy and colonial
atmosphere, home to the mysterious
UNESCO World Heritage City, Luang
Prabang. One of Asia’s
best-preserved cities, Luang Prabang
has an abundance of Buddhist temples
with astonishing architectures; you
can really see how the temple
structures vary in this majestic
country as you also visit the
national monuments in Vientiane
capital. You will get a real feel
for the nature as we pass through
picturesque mountain sceneries and
spend time absorbing the beautiful
setting by the undeveloped Mekong
River, Southeast Asia’s lifeline.
Day 1. Arrival – Vientiane ( D )
On arrival in Vientiane Capital, you
will be met and transferred to your
centrally located hotel. After a
short rest, we see the major sights
of the capital; including the oldest
Wat Sisaket, the temple with
thousands of miniature Buddha
statues and the former royal temple
of Wat Prakeo, which previously
housed the famous Emerald Buddha
Image. On the way to Lao’s national
icon, the famous and sacred
structure of That Luang Stupa, we
stop enroute to take some pictures
of the imposing Patuxay Monument,
which is well known as Vientiane’s
own Arc de Triumph The Mekong river
side is the perfect place to end the
day and admire the sunset. Overnight
in Vientiane.
Day
2. Vientiane - Luang Prabang ( B, L,
D )
Today, we transfer to the airport
for the short flight to Luang
Prabang, which is perhaps the
best-preserved traditional city in
Southeast Asia. After checking into
your hotel, we visit the impressive
stupa of Wat Visoun and the shrines
of Wat Aham and Wat Mai, we then
climb up to the top of Mount Phousi
to explore the sacred, gilded stupa
as well as have a beautiful view of
the city and the Mekong River at
sunset. From there, we explore the
Night Market, where you can browse a
lovely selection of handmade
textiles made by the local people
and hill tribes surrounding Luang
Prabang. Overnight in Luang Prabang
Day
3. Luang Prabang - Pak Ou caves ( B,
L, D )
Today,
we enjoy a short-guided tour seeing
the city’s oldest temples of Wat
Sene and the magnificent Wat
Xiengthong with its roofs sweeping
low to the ground, which represents
classical Laotian architecture. We
then embark on a cruise upstream on
the Mekong River, which also gives
us a breathtaking view of the
tranquil countryside as well as
exploring the mysterious Pak Ou
Caves, two linked caves crammed with
thousands of gold lacquered Buddha
statues of various shapes and sizes
left by devoted pilgrims. Along the
way, we will stop at the village of
Ban Xanghai, where the local rice
wine is produced. On return, we take
a short drive to another small
village Ban Phanom, which is famous
for its hand weaving. Overnight in
Luang Prabang
Day
4. Luang Prabang – Vientiane ( B, L,
D )
An
optional early start gives you the
fantastic opportunity to participate
in the daily morning rituals of
saffron-clad monks collecting
offerings of Alms (often in the form
of sticky rice) from the faithful
residents. This tradition is very
unique in Laos, being the only
Buddhist nation still preserving the
ritual.
After breakfast, we visit the
National Museum (closed Tuesdays) at
the former Royal Palace. It
displays a collection of artefacts
reflecting the richness of Lao
culture dating from the days of the
early kings right through to the
last sovereign. There will also be
time for us to look around the
Central Market. After visiting these
sights in the morning, you catch
your flight back to Vientiane. After
checking into your hotel, we
transfer out to see the Buddha Park,
an enchanting collection of Buddhist
and Hindu sculptures on the Mekong
Riverside meadow, near the
Friendship Bridge. There are
approximately 200 religious images
dating back over 500 years, which
were created by a mysterious monk
spreading his philosophy on life and
to reveal his ideas about the
universe. A spectacular view of over
the Mekong River at sunset is a
perfect way to finish the day.
Overnight in Vientiane
Day 5. Vientiane – Departure ( B )
After breakfast, we visit the
Morning Market and the weaving
village of Ban Nong Bouathong (if
time permits). The tour ends after
your transfer to Wattay airport for
departure
