Hiring a bike and explore the peace in Luang Prabang that is the trip of Beck. Let read the entry to know more.
Luang Prabang, Laos
Luang Prabang has definitely got to be my favorite place of the whole trip so far. UNESCO designated the city a World Heritage Site in 1995, and its not surprising to see why when you arrive. Its an absolutely beautiful, laid back town on the banks of the Mekong River in central Laos. There is a real colonial feel to the place, having been previously ruled by the French. The old buildings in the city (though they’re starting to fall apart) look like they’re out of a film set with their balconies, trailing vines and wooden window shutters. I took so many photos of just the buildings! The food here is great too. The coffee is super strong, and they make a brilliant effort at baking bread and other cakes and pastries. It was almost like you were in a French countryside village that had been plonked in the tropics. Even the older Laos women would start babbling in French to us!
