A very pleasant area - well managed - so likely to retain its attractive character. More

Almost didn't make it here, but so glad that we did. We ended up renting a motor bike for the day after weighing out the risks. It was a nice, smooth and safe ride up the mountain to the falls. The scenery was really great to see at your own pace, except for this military gathering of locals learning how... More

Not far out of town, a nice park, I sure the waterfall would be spectacular in the wet season, we were there at the end of the dry season and it was still a great place to visit with plenty of water going over the various levels of the waterfalls. More

There are stalls selling a variety of food just before you enter if you want a picnic lunch, Just inside the entry is the bear sanctuary and the bears looked in good condition with shiny coats. We went during the lao new year and it was interesting... More

No doubt worth the trip, especially on a hot day. Try to go early as the place starts getting busy around noon. In our case the waterfalls were the final point of a two-day trek - you can't imagine how refreshing it was! Don't take a half-day or one-day tour to go there, though, just go with one of the...

At the entrance there are some basic restaurants doing grilled chicken, fish and pork its also a good place to take... More
