    Pak Ou Caves

    December 19, 2017 in Laos ⋅ ☀️ 20 °C

    It was time to move to another hotel, some pretty hippie place near the Mekong river. Awesome food they have. In the afternoon me and Klemen took a minivan to the Pak Ou caves. Quite a bumpy ride! After getting to a village you still need to get a boat across Mekong river to the caves. There are two. Both like containing around 4000 Buddha statutes people brought.
