Destinations Of the Month           

Luang Prabang, the ancient royal city and the former Royal Capital of Laos is the the jewel of Indochina which is surrounded by mountains at the junction of the Mekong and its tributary, the Khan. It has dozens of temples and religious sites, both large and small. The best way to see these sites is by foot or by bicycle. The biggest concentration of temples is in the old quarter, much of which forms a peninsula between the Mekong and the Khan rivers. In between temple visits, there are many small restaurants perched high on the banks of the Mekong where you can watch life go by at a very slow pace.
