One
of the World Heritage City's finest hotels, the
Mouang Luang is a fine example of contemporary Lao architecture.
|
The hotel combines traditional elegance with modern luxury
to provide the perfect lodgings for visitors to the former
royal capital Furnished with a blend of antique style and
sumptuous comfort, the Mouang Luang is itself one of the
treasures of Luang Prabang.
|
|
|
The hotel is a five-minute walk from the Talat Dala
market and ten minutes from the centre of the old city,
famous for its temples, colonial boulevards, Royal Palace
and the sacred Phousi Mount.
|
Take a boat across the Mekong to explore ancient temples
abandoned to the jungle, or ask your boatman to take you
further downriver to the venerated buddha caves of Tham
Ting. A short drive in a three-wheeled cab (tuk-tuk)
will bring you to the golden spire of Vat Phone Phao,
or you may wish to try and find the last resting place of
Henri Mouhot, the French explorer who charted Laos
in the Nineteenth Century.
