Luang Prabang is surrounded by lots of natural beauty, including mountains, caves and waterfalls.
Pak Ou Cave is carved out of the rock face and is reached by a boat trip up the Mekong. It is an amazing spot in itself but when you get inside you get quite a surprise.
The Cave is full of Buddhas, in fact there are about 2500 of them in the lower cave.
The trip on the Mekong is also a highlight. The high speed boat trip was certainly quite an adrenaline rush.
The mountains and the abundant water means lots of waterfalls
Kuang Si Waterfall is a spectacular spot, with its big drop and its amazingly coloured water, a result of the limestone rocks it cuts through.
What an amazing cave all hidden away. The waterfall is spectacular especially compared with Ko Chang's Khlong Phlu waterfall which we walked to when we with you in April
