Luang Prabang, Laos - A Triad of Tranquility

Enter into the serene landscapes of the unspoiled ancient beauty of Laos. Each destination holds unique treasures and spiritual sanctuaries that will leave you feeling blessed. Join the ritual of alms giving to the monks. This ritual isn’t just an act. It’s a spiritual bond. Through these offerings, locals aspire for blessings and positive karma, and in return, the monks bestow merit, ensuring spiritual harmony for you.

This journey has been personally designed by Lamphoune Voravongsa, owner of Satri House and Lao Poet Hotels, passionate to share her knowledge about Lao culture, art and traditions.

Highlights of the Journey:

• Luang Prabang, UNESCO Heritage Town
• Vientiane, peaceful capital city of Laos

Discover 2 capitals of Laos: the cultural capital and UNESCO town Luang Prabang with a French colonial touch and the country’s capital mixing traditions and modernity, with a stay in a real urban jungle retreat.

You should leave the hotel at 5.30am to the main street in the center of the old town. Ask for a briefing on the signification and the “procedure”, before participating, as a respect for the monks then take position on the sidewalk.

You may take a bicycle from the hotel and go around the town, stop to visit temples, the market or museums. Unless you prefer to go by walk.
