After a quick flight (yes we cheated) we were able to leave behind the hassle and noise of Hanoi for the quiet temple lined streets of Luang Prabang. On our first day we simply wandered in and out of temples (aka wats), walked the heated banks of the mekong and weaved our way through local market stalls.
To next day we decided to escape the heat by heading out to Tat Kuang Si waterfall 30 km south of town. We followed a forest trail to a series of tiered waterfalls each ending in a turquoise pool of water. We picked our preferred swimming spot and jumped in. After a lunch of whole BBQ fish and a compulsory bottle of Beer Lao we headed back to LP to watch the sun set over the mekong.
