When you walk in the center of Luang Prabang, you'll notice that there are many beautiful Buddist temples.

80% of the males in Luang Prabang is a monk for at least a few years of their lives because this allows them to have a proper education. Some stay monk all their lives.

The temples are very beautiful, with a lot of gold and paintings. Most can be visited for free, some ask for a small fee to allow maintenance of the buildings.

This is a great place to relax and come at peace with oneself. Try to visit the temples in the morning when the sun is not yet too bright.
