Compared to the other bustling capital cities in Southeast Asia, Vientiane feels like a small, quiet and peaceful city.
After you're done the round of temples, museums and shopping, the best thing to do here is wander down to one of the riverside beer gardens, kick back with a coffee or cold Beerlao (the Lao national beer) and watch the sunset over the Mekong River or go on a boat cruise. The riverside in Vientiane is only a few minutes drive away from the Morning Market. |
