Visit Kuang Si Waterfall
Being the biggest waterfall in Luang Prabang, Kuang Si Waterfall is popular among both locals and tourists alike for its great swimming holes. Despite its mind-blowing beauty, one can take a relaxing dip in tiered pools of turquoise blue waters. Taking a hike to the top of the falls is worth the views through scenic rice fields, waterways, and villages.
