Kiridara

On your first morning, venture out for an exciting day of sightseeing. Visit Xieng Thong Wat, the beautiful, gilded temple built in 1560, which has amazing doorways and stuccos and a breathtaking "tree of life" mosaic. Continue on to the Royal Palace, where you can see the original king's reception room, beautiful French-colonial architecture, and a magnificent and peaceful lotus pond. Cool off later that afternoon with a dip in the Kuang Si Waterfalls. Afterwards, be amazed by the grandeur of the 3-tiered falls, then dive into the crystalline ponds that beckon to you. To explore Luang Prabang a bit closer, delight in an elephant ride tour that will take you on a fascinating journey through the rich, verdant jungles and mountains. That evening, after a fabulous day in the mountains, return to the hotel for some much needed pampering at the spa. Emerging refreshed and relaxed, sit down to a fabulous dinner at Phu Doi Restaurant, and watch the sun set over the mountains from the quiet terrace. At Kiridara, discover the pure beauty of Laos, and the quiet wonder of Luang Prabang.
