✨ Review of a 3-day, 2-night Laos trip ✨ I must say this trip was a fun one, complete with sightseeing, relaxation, delicious food, and tons of beautiful photos! Day 1: Vientiane Starting from our trip to Laos, we had to check out the iconic Pha That Luang in Vientiane. 🛕 It's incredibly beautiful and impressive, and the surrounding atmosphere is so peaceful, we were able to both pray and take photos at the same time. Afterward, we stopped by Phozap, a famous restaurant in Vientiane, serving up delicious, spicy Lao food. 🥗🍲 Day 2: Vang Vieng Today, we continued our journey to Vang Vieng. The highlight was a visit to Tham Nang Fah. Walking inside, we enjoyed the cool breeze and admired the beautiful stalactites and stalagmites. 🪨 We then continued on to the Blue Lagoon. 💦 The water was incredibly clear, and people were having fun swimming and jumping rope. We even took a refreshing dip. In the evening, we stayed at the Riverside Raft House. The atmosphere is amazing! Right on the waterfront, with mountain views and a truly natural feel. 🌿 Chilling, sipping a drink, and enjoying the view is so wonderful. Day 3: Chilling before heading back On the last morning, I woke up to breathe in the fresh air by the river, then took a stroll and bought some souvenirs before heading back. 💖 In short, my 3 days and 2 nights in Laos were both relaxing and well-rounded. Most importantly, the Lao people were so lovely and kind. The cost was reasonable, and the view and experience were worth it! ✨ #GetDiscountsWithoutLuck #TravelLaos #TravelAbroad #Laos #LaosCountry #LaosAttractions
