If you’re visiting one of the most trending destinations – Luang Prabang and you did not visit Kuang Si Falls, you’re definitely missing out. The surreal fall gracing down the stone palettes and gathering at the large pool which speaks serenity is breathtakingly beautiful. Here is a mini guide to make your journey easier.
How to Visit
You can either take a shared tuk-tuk or a minivan from the city limits to visit the falls or hire a private taxi. Bicycles, motorbikes and scooters are great ways of travelling if you do not mind the distance and a bit of adventure. The most exciting way to visit Kuang Si, however, is to take a boat ride down the river. You can plan your visit while staying at one of the Luang Prabang hotels with easy access to transportation, such as Avani+ Luang Prabang.
What to See
The emerald-green water cascading down the rocks is the most majestic sight, and when you climb to the top, you will find a wooden footbridge which looks like it is right out of a movie with the view of the falls in the background. The nature around the falls is strikingly diverse with a range of flora and fauna to explore.
Things to See
You can either take a hike to the top of the falls and enjoy the panoramic view and visit the footbridge to take a few selfies or have a picnic at the bottom where you can treat yourself to some delicious treats while enjoying the magnificent scenery. Take a dip to refresh at the areas marked safe, for an unforgettable experience.
