Welcome to Luang Prabang Travel Tips. This website is created to provide tourists and visitors with useful as well as interesting information to prepare for a trip to Luang Prabang, Laos. The city of Luang Prabang is the former capital of the Kingdom of Laos. It is regarded as one of the best preserved heritage sites in Southeast Asia, having one of the densest concentration of functioning Buddhist temples of any city in the region. With its inscription as a Unesco World Heritage Site, Luang Prabang is drawing tourists and visitors from all over the world attracted by its beauty and wishing to experience this well-preserved city. However, tourism has changed Luang Prabang, positively as well as negatively. Without being judgmental over the impact of tourism to Luang Prabang, through this website, I want to provide you practical tips to help you plan a trip that is enjoyable, smooth as well as memorable.
I created Luang Prabang Travel Tips to share all the tips about Luang Prabang that I have collected over many years. The information is arranged in the list of topics below. I must apologise that this website is still very much a work in progress. I need time to research, verify, write and upload the information I want to share with you, and I seek your patience as this website materialises bit by bit. Do check back regularly for new updates. You can also subscribe to my Luang Prabang RSS Feed or join my Yahoo Forum, where you can also interact with fellow travel enthusiasts.
