We begin by visiting the city's oldest temple of Wat Wisunalat and the magnificent Wat Xieng Thong with its roofs sweeping low to the ground, representing the classic architecture of Luang Prabang’s temples. Heading out of town, we embark on a leisurely boat journey upstream on the mighty Mekong River which has breathtaking views of the tranquil countryside.  The mysterious Pak Ou Caves are crammed with thousands of gold lacquered Buddha statues of various shapes and sizes. Returning to Luang Prabang, we stop at Ban Xang Hai, where local rice wine is made. We then continue back down the Mekong with a stop at Ban Xangkong and Ban Xienglek, villages making jute paper products, before returning to Luang Prabang by late afternoon.
