Travel products will take you around the world. Because many countries in Southeast Asia are relatively close to China and have many beautiful scenery, they have become tourist destinations for many Chinese people.

Among them, the country that left the most profound impression on tourists is Laos.

Perhaps you once had a prejudice against Laos as a country: unsafe, very poor, and very backward. Such stereotypes are definitely not the real Laos.

This time, Youpin will lead everyone to explore the real Laos, this magical country!

Luang Prabang

Depart from Kunming and fly directly to Luang Prabang, the most famous tourist city in Laos. The local government implements a visa-on-arrival system for Chinese citizens, which is very convenient.

The buildings on the street combine French and East Asian architectural styles, which are very distinctive. You can also see many monks and Buddha statues in the streets and alleys.

Every night, although there is no lantern-filled atmosphere like a Chinese night market, vendors pushing food carts can be seen everywhere on the streets, pushing the flavor of the night to its peak.

Specialty Hotel

The place where you stay in Luang Prabang is also very unique.

There is a cafe downstairs in the room. It feels very comfortable to sit here drinking coffee and watching people coming and going outside.

The real hotel is upstairs. It costs about 1,500 yuan a night, which is the most expensive expense on this trip to Laos.

I would like to recommend two local hotels, Satri House and Avani+.

The former is full of French style, with a beautiful water lily pond in the center of the hotel; the latter is a simple and modern hotel, with a quiet environment and an excellent location.

Kwang Si Waterfall

The first two days were spent in the urban area of ??Luang Prabang. On the third day, we took a local tutu bus to set off, which took about In more than half an hour, we arrived at Guangxi Forest Park, 3 kilometers away from Luang Prabang city.

Dense jungles and blue pools can be seen everywhere here, giving it a feeling of primeval forest, and the mountains and plains have the flavor of Jiuzhaigou.

The difference is that here, we can walk into the water, and swimming in the waterfall is also a very unique experience.

However, there are quite a lot of mosquitoes here. If you go there, you must be prepared in advance to prevent mosquitoes.

Wat Phu Temple

On the fourth day, Youpin got on the bus. Three hours later, he arrived at Champasak, a small town located in Pakse, southwest Laos.

In fact, Pakse also has its own airport. You can also choose to take a small plane there, which is faster than taking a bus.

Compared with Luang Prabang, there is not so much commercial atmosphere here, and it maintains a relatively original style.

There are various Buddhist buildings, the most famous of which is Wat Phu Temple located at the foot of Mount Pukao. Its history is even older than the famous Angkor Wat.

Every photo taken here is a blockbuster.

In the afternoon we came to the other side of the river. There were many Tutu drivers at the foot of the mountain, so we took the bus up the mountain to see the big Buddha statue and the whole picture of Pakse.

I returned to the city of Pakse in the evening, liberated myself in the bar street, and drank away the fatigue accumulated after running around for a day.

There are also many B&Bs near Bar Street, which cost about 400 yuan a night. They are not only cheap, but also have a very good environment.

Vientiane

On the last day, Youpin took a small plane from Pakse to Vientiane, the capital of Laos.

I believe many friends know that there is a Arc de Triomphe in France, but in fact there is also a Arc de Triomphe in Southeast Asia, in Vientiane.

Its appearance is full of unique local Buddhist colors, with geometric symmetry, architectural design beauty, and a sense of solemnity.

In addition, Vientiane is also a city for food and shopping. If the tight schedule of the past few days did not satisfy you, then you can completely relax when you come to Vientiane.

Youpin tried several restaurants, and finally felt that Pimenton Restaurant and Cafe ango can be recommended to everyone. They are definitely suitable for Chinese tastes.

How about it? Does this real Laos surprise your friends?

If you are tired of seeing the scenery of island countries in Southeast Asia, a visit to Laos is also a good choice!
