Promise me, if you come to Luang Prabang, you must go to Phousi Hill to watch a sunset

Phousi Hill is located at the top of a hill in the center of the small town. It is not very high, and it takes only ten minutes to climb to the top. The view here is unparalleled, offering a panoramic view of Luang Prabang, similar to an aerial shot. Looking into the distance, you can see the Mekong River, and there's a large rock that is great for taking pictures. I suggest getting there early to secure a spot, otherwise, it can get very crowded. Facing the direction of the Mekong River is where you can watch the sunset. We came from the road on the other side, where you'll also find many large Buddha statues, as well as many old houses of Luang Prabang. After watching the sunset, you'll find that you can take another small path down, which leads directly to the Luang Prabang night market😎 If you come up this way, it will be even closer. Location: Walk up the stairs opposite the Luang Prabang Grand Palace. Warm tips: Every day, there are many tourists watching the sunset on Phousi Hill, and there are only a few chairs on the hill. Visitors usually sit on the stone steps waiting for the sunset, so remember to arrive early if you want to find a good spot.

High-speed rail directly to a slow-paced small country! Cheaper than Thailand with fewer people.

Luang Prabang Travel | This city is perfect for daydreaming every day.

Phousi Hill

Here, there are no towering buildings, no crowded tourists, and no excessive commercialization. The flow of time seems to have slowed down, making it perfect for leisurely walks, daydreaming, and a few days of "lying flat" lifestyle. Phou Si Mountain is located in the center of Luang Prabang's old town area. It takes 15 minutes to climb to the top, where you can overlook the entire ancient city. Here, there is one of the eight most beautiful sunsets in Asia, with the evening glow and sunset. Legend has it that lovers who come here to watch the sunset together will stay together forever. If you are an outdoor enthusiast, then you must come to Wanrong. And Blue Lagoon is the most fun and joyful place in my mind to directly experience happiness in Wanrong. On the mountain next to it is the famous Tham Pha Kan cave, and the water inside the cave converges into a dreamy blue waterfall lake.
