Pak Ou Caves: Thousands of Buddha figures in a setting of spiritual tranquility
Can you imagine what it would be like to navigate the Mekong to a mysterious place where more than 4,000 Buddha statues await you? By visiting the Pak Ou Caves after sailing the Mekong, you will be able to contemplate images of the Enlightened One up to 300 years old! Because yes, the only way to get to Tham Ting and Tham Phum - as these two sacred caves are called - is by crossing the river. Can you imagine seeing the passage of time on the faces of the sculptures that have been welcoming the faithful for centuries?
"Don't forget your flashlight! Tham Phum is completely in the dark!"
Explore Tham Ting and enjoy the breathtaking views of the Mekong River from it. Stroll among its altars filled with Buddha figurines and be amazed by the devotion of the faithful who come there to pray. However, the adventure does not await you there; the adventure awaits you a little further beyond this first sanctuary, in Tham Phum, the darkest of the two caves, where you will need a flashlight to advance along the path without stepping on anyone. Dare to explore the Pak Ou Caves, one of the most solemn places you will see in Laos!
