Vang Vieng

Vang Vieng doesn't have much to offer. It owes its popularity to the beautiful surroundings and a party image.

A favorite with travelers - many stay longer than planned. However this town became too famous for them and became a party village. Music and noise last until late night.

Vang Vieng is a small town surrounded by mountains & rivers. The main attractions are caves, Hmong villages, and the natural mountain scenery.

The river is spanned by a number of wooden bridges, which despite their flimsy appearance complement the scenery perfectly.

The landscape is incredibly serene and picturesque; beyond the sparkling river, sheer limestone cliffs rise from a plateau of paddy fields

    but look what I missed. Maybe by about 10 years?
