Luang Prabang – Elephant Village – Pak Ou Caves

Spend half-day to experience elephant ride before visit the Pak Ou Caves, two famous caves cut into the limestone cliff overlooking the Mekong River. Both are crammed with Buddha images of various styles and sizes. A few steps from the river, the lower 'cave' is actually more of an overhang. A group of Buddha poses perfectly as silhouettes against the grand riverine backdrop.
