View of Luang Prabang from the hillWe have really been enjoying the city of Luang Prabang in Northern Laos. It is a French-colonial town with several beautiful Wats (buddhist temples). We rented bicycles and cruised around the town, walked along the Mekong River, visited the Wats and ate baguettes for breakfast. Found a little bakery that serves great chocolate filled croissants. It is a very safe city and right now it is packed with tourists. Biking around town is quite fun, there is little traffic except for bicycle, motorcycle/scooter, and tuk-tuks. There seem to be no traffic rules and at interesections you kind of behave like it is a round-a-bout but it isn't really one..... everyone just merges into each other.
Beautiful wat with mosaics all over
