Singthong Explains Pak Ou Caves in Luang Prabang
Near Pak Ou the Tham Ting and the Tham Theung are caves overlooking the Mekong River, 25 km to the north of Luang Prabang, Laos. They are a group of two caves on the west side of the Mekong river, about two hours upstream from the center of Luang Prabang, and are frequently visited by tourists.
Pak Ou Caves in Laos
Friday (3/2/2020):- The visit to Pak Ou caves was by a slow Snake Boat .We set sail at 0840 hrs and after a brief stoppage at Ban Xanghai village (Whisky Village) finally reached Pak Ou caves after 2 hrs of sailing.By road Pak Ou caves is approximately 29 Kms from Luang Prabang.There are two different caves inside this small hill known as Tham Ting by locals.My first visit was to the Lower Pak Ou Caves situated inside a cave up a long flight of stairs from the ferry berth.The caves got its name due to its proximity to Pak Ou village .This Lower Cave of which i have produced this video is the most popular of the 2 caves on this small hill.Since the introduction of Buddhism in this region locals have been arriving at this cave and placing
Buddha statues and now there is a collection of over 4000 Buddha statues of various sizes in the cave.After viewing this cave made my way up the diagonal flight of stairs through the hill forest onto the Upper Cave. It was a real tough trek walking up a flight of 100 steps to the Upper Cave.The entrance doorway to the Upper Cave is made of ornate metalwork and is beautiful and a refreshing view after the ascent to the top.Traditionally in the past during Lao New Year the Royal Family along with a contingent of monks used to travel to visit this Upper Cave to pour water over a sacred Buddha statue as part of the Pi Mi celebration rituals.On entering this cave found it in total darkness unlike the Lower Cave and thanks to my torchlight got to view the Buddha and other statues inside this cave. :- Seafarer/Blogger/Traveller Rudolph.A.Furtado

LUANG PRABANG, Laos - Tam Ting Caves and Night Market - BeautyLovesTech Day 2
Luang Prabang, Laos - Tam Ting Caves and Night Market - BeautyLovesTech Day 2
Our second full day in Luang Prabang. We're ready for some more adventure! Today we're going to Ban Pak Ou to see the Tam Ting Caves. We took a slow boat ride about 30km North on the Mekong River. Did I mention it was slow? Very slow and a little bit chilly we had to use a blanket. Very nice scenery along the way, but after a while we took a nap. It took about 2hrs to get there. Once we arrived, we climbed up many stairs to see the Tam Ting Shrines and caves. Very interesting and beautiful to see. Many parts were nearly pitch dark and we could've really used a flash light. But we managed to walk through using the light on our iPhones :) When I saw something interesting, like a shrine, I would take 2 photos with the flash camera. First photo to see what was there with the flash, and second photo to frame the shot better. When we left the caves, looking across the Mekong River I could see elephants walking about. We would've loved to go see them, but we had other plans for the day. When we got back to Luang Prabang, we cleaned up and relaxed at a nice little restaurant right along the riverside and enjoyed a few Beer Laos and watched the sunset. After that we walked around the corner to Sisavangvong Road to explore the night market. We saw many handcrafted goods along the main road, and food markets along the side roads. Another full day of adventure! We loved it all!

概要
洞窟内の仏像とメコン川
洞窟最奥部から見る。
メコン川の支流であるナムウー川合流点付近にある。洞内からはメコン川が見下ろせ、独自の景観を呈している。洞窟は下側川に面し切り立った崖をくり抜いたようなタム・ティンとそこから徒歩15分くらい上部のタム・プンの2つからなる。
タム・ティンの仏像群。約4000体が祀られる。
タム・ティン内部には住民らが運び込んだ大小、新旧さまざまの約4000体の仏像が所狭しと置かれている。さながら日本で言うと「五百羅漢」的な雰囲気である。ほとんどの仏像は小さなものだが、その多くは材質のチープさも手伝い風化で形も崩れ、決して歴史的･文化的価値のあるものばかりとはいえず、観光客も多く、神聖な場所というよりもどことなくB級スポット的雰囲気も漂わせている。
タム・プンは、横穴になっており、真っ暗な内部に仏像が点在し懐中電灯が必要（有料の貸し出しあり）。
メコン川もこのあたりまで遡ると周囲の山々の織りなす景観が、中国の桂林のような雰囲気を呈し始める。
洞窟へは通常、乗り合いの観光船で行くことになるが、多くは往路途中でバーン・サーンハイ（Ban Xang Hai）の村へ立ち寄る。バーン・サーンハイは、壷造りと蒸留酒「ラオ・ラーオ」造りでも有名であり、試飲などもできる。土産物店が建ち並ぶ村の奥には小さな村に似つかわしくない立派な寺がある。
交通アクセス
パークウー洞窟行きのエンジンボートは、毎日8時出発。
ボート:ルアンプラバーン市内の一般スローボート発着場よりやや上流の専用発着場があり、幅の小さく細長い独自の形状のエンジンボートで往路所要2時間、復路1時間。通常、往路に酒造りの村バーン・サーンハイへ立ち寄る。直接、ボート乗り場でチケットを買うと65,000kip。旅行代理店を通すと80,000kip。定期便は朝8時に1回のみ。チャーターの相場は300,000kip。悪質な客引きが時に日本円で60,000円くらいを吹っかけてくることがあるので注意が必要。
トゥクトゥク:チャーターの相場は250,000kip。ボートよりも早いが、風情はないため利用は少ない。最後は渡し舟で対岸へ渡る必要がある。
入場料 20,000kip。
料金、レート（1円＝95kip ）は2011年5月現在。2016年1月現在は（1円＝67kip）。
Near Pak Ou (mouth of the Ou river) the Tham Ting (lower cave) and the Tham Theung (upper cave) are caves overlooking the Mekong River, 25 km to the north of Luang Prabang, Laos. They are a group of two caves on the west side of the Mekong river, about two hours upstream from the centre of Luang Prabang, and have become well known by tourists.
The caves are noted for their miniature Buddha sculptures. Hundreds of very small and mostly damaged wooden Buddhist figures are laid out over the wall shelves. They take many different positions, including meditation, teaching, peace, rain, and reclining (nirvana).
