Day 2: Vientiane City Tour (B, G)
After breakfast at your hotel, you’ll start visiting the major sights of the capital, including Wat Sisaket, the oldest temple with thousands of miniature Buddha statues, and the former royal temple of Wat Prakeo, which previously housed the famous Emerald Buddha Image. En route to Laos’ national icon, the precious and sacred That Luang Stupa, you’ll have the opportunity to take some pictures of the imposing Patuxay Monument, known as Vientiane’s own Arc de Triomphe.
You’ll then transfer to see the Buddha Park, an enchanting collection of Buddhist and Hindu sculptures on the Mekong Riverside meadow, near the Friendship Bridge. There are approximately 200 religious images dating back over 500 years, created by a mysterious monk to spread his philosophy on life and reveal his ideas about the universe. A spectacular view over the Mekong River at sunset will be a perfect way to finish the day. You’ll return to Vientiane in the late evening, and your evening will be free. Overnight in Vientiane.
