Luang Prabang Travel Guide: Practical Information

Luang Prabang is located in the moutainous north of Laos on a peninsula, where both the Mekong River and Nam Khan River meet.

The city feels like nowhere else I’ve been to in South East Asia. And despite its mesmerising charm, it is still not yet overcrowded by tourists.

In fact, one of my very favourite things about Luang Prabang is the lack of motorised vehicles and noise on the streets. Luang Prabang is such a relaxing place to visit, with both tourists and locals existing in harmony. There’s no hassle, no tacky tourists gifts and no honking of horns. Are you sold yet?

And whether you’re visiting Laos as a backpacker (check this guide to Laos backpacker travel tips here!), a family holiday, or on a romantic couples trip – you’re guaranteed to have a great time.
