Luang Prabang by Night

Immerse yourself in Lao culture with an evening adventure in Luang Prabang. Start with a friendly game of petanque, a popular local pastime introduced by the French in the 1800s. Enjoy snacks and drinks while mingling with locals who gather nightly to play. After the game, climb the 328 steps to the top of Mount Phousi for breathtaking views of Luang Prabang and the surrounding countryside as the sun sets. Descend to the vibrant night market, where you can explore stalls offering hill tribe textiles and local street snacks, all while soaking in the lively atmosphere. End the night with a social meal at a riverside barbecue spot. At this popular eatery, a charcoal burner will be set up at your table for grilling a variety of meats and vegetables. Relax with a cold drink and enjoy the communal experience of dining with friends. After a delightful evening, return to your hotel with memories of a truly local experience.
