Luang Prabang's Pak Ou Caves

Our driver, puttering along
One of the many monks you'll run into around Luang Prabang
A fisherman on the Mekong River, untangling his nets
The boat docks at Pak Ou caves
So many Buddha images in the lower cave it was hard to grasp
Inside the lower cave, some of the thousands of Buddha images
So much Buddha
And, while most visitors are tourists, it is still a religious pilgrimage site
Looking up into the lower cave
In the upper cave things are a bit more sparse and serene
The entry to the upper cave; awesome detail on the gates
Looking back down the stairs from the upper cave area
River life near Pak Ou
How do you know which boat is yours?
Kids on the shore, selling trinkets
Try the Lao Lao whiskey, not because it is good but because it isn't!
Monk life on the riverside
