Located a couple of hours upstream from Luang Prabang, the Pak Ou Caves are met by both the Nam Ou and Mekong Rivers. The two caves set inside the dramatic limestone cliff faces are home to many thousands of Buddha icons that have been placed here by local people since the 16th century, when King Setthathirat found the caves and declared them a holy spot. Many people still pay respect to this tradition today as it is one of the most respected holy sites in the country.
The caves be visited as a return excursion from Luang Prabang, or if you are travelling from the North of the country down to the city by boat, you will stop en route.
You can include this experience as part of an Experience Travel Group holiday designed exclusively with you.
