Overview about Luang Prabang you should know before your vacation

Luang Prabang is the city combined the fusion of traditional architecture and Lao urban structures with those built by the European colonial authorities in the 19th and 20th centuries. Its unique, remarkably well-preserved townscape illustrates a key stage in the blending of these two distinct cultural traditions.

Even the most jaded travelers can easily be lured by the “colors” which is the first of Luang Prabang’s virtues. The scents of street-side fresh coffee produce markets, and spicy food soon follows—and then the broader aesthetics begin to unfold. Encircled by mountains, and set 700 m above sea level, Luang Prabang is now Laos’ foremost tourist showpiece. The gleaming temple roofs, the old French colonial architecture, and multiethnic inhabitants will absolutely make your visit here a true and memorable vacation.
