Stopped overnight in a palm and bamboo "hut" - surprisingly comfortable and relatively mosquito free but oh so cold!!! Trip came to an abrupt end when we were dumped about 8 kilometres short of LuangLeia mais

Capital city and a bit more lively and industrious. But there is no public transport!? Plenty of tuk tuk though. Prices are mostly in US $ if not you're probably in the wrong part of town!
Looked at all the photos published - wonderful trip and the map showing all your movements is super. Continue and have fun. Will keep looking in xx Liz

This is the focal point for Buddhism in the city. However, it's all new as so much was destroyed by the Khmer Rouge.
