Old Quarter Luang Prabang走走遍天下XZLuang Prabang is definitely the most beautiful city in Laos! Once the most brilliant ancient capital of Laos, and the most carefully built city in France throughout Southeast Asia's colonial region, the combination of ancient Buddhist culture and modern French romance has made the whole city a world cultural heritage protection unit. But if you just walk through the city, it may be "only in this mountain" and "do not know the true face of Lushan", you must climb Mount Push to see the whole picture of Luang Prabang. Most people come up to see the Mekong sunset in the evening, but if they go up early and overlook the entire city of Luang Prabang in the opposite direction, the sun is tilted west, and the light is the most beautiful. The whole city is hidden in green trees, a red and yellow roof French villa looks particularly charming, surrounded by mountains in the distance, the clear river near the blue sky, smoke is also floating everywhere... At this time, Luang Prabang is the most romantic time!
Sisavangvong Road兔兔子6Laos Foreigner Street is an ancient and romantic street, many of the buildings here were built during the French colonial period, so it also has a French taste. There are many family hotels in this area, you can choose a room to live, feel the quiet temple world during the day, and stroll around the night market on the foreigner street at night.
Royal Palace走走遍天下XZThe Grand Palace of Luang Prabang, the most luxurious palace in Southeast Asia built by French colonialists to the Lao royal family, was nationalized after the establishment of the socialist system in 1975, and the royal family moved to the north, now the National Museum. The picture of Jin Bihui 𤾗 that I often see is actually just the temple of the royal family. The "work" shape of the building that blends French architecture with Lao traditional architectural style is the main building of the palace. After listening to the special explanation, I looked at the layout and furnishings inside to experience the luxury and dignity (cannot take pictures). It was once looted by the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. Fortunately, it seemed that things such as the "Dajin Throne" were too bulky and did not move away.
Alms Giving Ceremony in Luang Prabang走走遍天下XZI have heard that Busch is a very high-grade merit, thank you very much for the arrangement of the travel agency, this time in Luang Prabang, I am fortunate to participate in it. Since the opening of the old and middle railways has been more than two years, more and more tourists have flocked to the city, and the monks' early morning offerings have gradually become a popular tourist project. It feels like the streets of Bushi may have divided the area of tourists and local believers. When we arrived, small stools, small carpets, food (steam rice), disposable gloves and plaid cloth towels on the shoulders had already helped us prepare. Some will guide you to a special place, take off your shoes and put them behind you, and then wait for the monks to arrive. In addition to rice, you can also prepare a variety of snacks, or change, and the RMB is also accepted. Monks are walking barefoot on the sidewalk, so be sure not to walk up in shoes. An unforgettable experience, the power of faith!
Wat Xieng Thong走走遍天下XZXiangtong Temple, the only royal monastery in Luang Prabang, reveals the "tree of life" of causal reincarnation, the reclining Buddha, and the old abbot are the three treasures of the town temple. It is said that before the monastery was built, there was a towering tree here, and later on the back wall of the temple painted this "tree of life", the above pattern is a Buddhist legend of the causal cycle. The old abbot is on the right hand side of the Buddha in the temple, next to the photos of the old abbot, lifelike. The sleeping Buddha is not very easy to find, it is said to be very spiritual, but people who are destined will always see the last side! The gate of the monastery is the cruise ship dock for visiting the Meigong River.
Phousi Hill走走遍天下XZMount Puxi is an important attraction in the old town of Luang Prabang, and an important Buddhist holy place. The mountain is not very high. It takes about one or twenty minutes to climb to the top. The upper and lower import and export all pass through the old city. You don't have to worry about getting lost. However, the steps are still steep, coupled with the hot weather, so it is best to choose a more suitable time for one morning and one night. Most people will choose to go up to see the sunset of the Mekong River in the evening, sit quietly on the steps near the Shwedagon Pagoda on the top of the mountain, waiting for the sun to set. The area on the top of the mountain is small and there are quite a lot of people. The trees on the hillside are messy and there are few angles for sunsets, but most people just want to enjoy the baptism of the sunset.
Hmong Night MarketTTeacher EyNight Market is just a walking distance to everything.It offers native products from Luang Prabang and souvenirs that are originated from here. Prices are affordable and worth it.
Luang Prabang morning market走走遍天下XZAfter attending the early morning monks' burial in Luang Prabang, they usually go to the morning market in the city center. The morning market is on a not-so-big street, with a variety of stalls on both sides, some boards, some mats and selling, and some slightly large-scale shops. It feels completely different from the vegetable market in the impression. The first is quiet and orderly. There is no shouting one after another. The second is relatively clean, no smell, sewage flowing across the water. The third is that the clothes are very neat and generous, the image is decent, and there are many young people. The fourth is that the materials are full and dazzling, covering almost all aspects of life, food, clothing, housing and transportation. There are also many things we don't usually see, such as mice 🐭...
Phosy Market精精灵背包游侠Ice drinks are a bit profitable, but a large cup of ice cubes plus a spoonful of milk tea jelly, the cost is only a few cents, not as attractive as the large glass ice drink made by the Malaysian people. The people of Southeast Asia are curious, the hotter the more they love to eat hot barbecue, roasted glutinous rice balls, snail meat, chicken hearts, 3 strings 3.2 yuan. Very fragrant and delicious. Lunch at the roadside store by the way, pig soup powder 16 yuan, popcorn cake 8 corners. The locals have ignored the flies, and the cockroaches must eat while catching the flies, otherwise they will eat them together.
Tat Sae WaterfallsTTui.KPSTat Sae Waterfall is a very beautiful waterfall, but if you come, you have to ask the locals as there will be some periods without water and traveling requires a boat to cross in.
