VIENG VANG

VANG VIENG

Formerly a pit stop between Vientiane and Luang Prabang, now Vang Vieng has become a destination for those keen to enjoy adventure activities such as kayaking, caving and rock climbing. The main attraction is the spectacular landscape and towering limestone rock formations riddled with caves, although the town is popular with backpackers for its river tubing and social cafes and bars.

Getting here: From Vientiane it is a 2½ - 3 hours drive and Luang Prabang 6-7 hours drive.
