Luang Prabang Wat Long Khoun
Traditionally, Wat Long Khourn was used by the Crown Prince to prepare for his coronation at Wat Xieng Thong. The King-to-be would spend three days meditating and ritually cleansing before crossing the river to Wat Xieng Thong to be crowned.
The temple was built in two halves; the rear section in the late 18th century and the front section in 1937 by King Sisavangvong.

Almost directly across the Mekong River from Wat Xieng Thong is the 18th century temple of Long Khoun.
Here the former kings of Laos would spend three days in retreat prior to their coronation.
Set high above the River in a rural setting, this small temple is quite delightful. The interior murals of the main Sim have murals depicting the tales from the Jataka.

Les moines de Luang Prabang / The Monks of Luang Prabang (Laos)
(F) Luang Prabang (lao : ຫລວງພຣະບາງ) est une ville du Nord du Laos, actuelle capitale de la province de Luang Prabang. Luang Prabang fut formellement la capitale royale du Lan Xang (royaume du million d'éléphants) du xive siècle à 1946. La capitale effective fut Vientiane à partir de 1563, puis, après la séparation du royaume de Luang Prabang et du royaume de Vientiane en 1707, le titre de capitale du Lan Xang fut disputé entre les deux villes.
C'est un port fluvial situé sur le Mékong, 210 kilomètres en amont de Vientiane. Enchâssée dans un environnement montagneux, le climat y est plus frais et la difficulté d'accès lui a permis de garder son aspect originel et typique. Peu peuplée, environ 53 792 habitants, elle s'est ouverte au tourisme depuis les années 1990 et est inscrite à l'inventaire des sites du patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO depuis 1995.
Luang Prabang est connu pour ses nombreux temples bouddhistes et monastères. Chaque matin, des centaines de moines provenant des différents monastères marchent à travers les rues pour récolter l'aumône des habitants et parfois des touristes. l'un des principaux sites de la ville est une grande colline raide dominé au sommet par le temple Wat Chom Si.
(EN Luang Prabang, or Louangphrabang (Lao: ຫຼວງພຣະບາງ, literally: Royal Buddha Image (in the Dispelling Fear mudra), pronounced [lǔaŋ pʰra.bàːŋ]), is a city located in north central Laos, at the confluence of the Nam Khan river and Mekong River about 300 km north of Vientiane. It is the capital of Luang Prabang Province. The population of the city is about 50,000.[1]
The city was formerly the capital of a kingdom of the same name. It had also been known by the ancient name of Chiang Thong.[2] Until the communist takeover in 1975, it was the royal capital and seat of government of the Kingdom of Laos. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The main part of the city consists of four main roads located on a peninsula between the Nam Khan and Mekong rivers. The city is well known for its numerous Buddhist temples and monasteries. Every morning, hundreds of monks from the various monasteries walk through the streets collecting alms. One of the major landmarks in the city is a large steep hill on which sits Wat Chom Si.

방비엥을 뒤로하고, 나는 끝없이 휘어지는 도로를 달렸다. 라오스의 진면목을 볼 수 있다는 루앙프라방으로 향했다. 이곳은 옛 라오스 왕국의 수도로 역사와 문화가 고스란히 살아 숨 쉬고 있다. 1995년 유네스코는 루앙프라방 지역 전체를 세계문화유산으로 선정했다. 나는 루앙프라방 외곽에 위치한 꽝시산으로 향했다. 바로 이곳에 아름다운 꽝시 폭포가 있다. 울창한 밀림 속 나무들이 한낮의 뙤약볕을 가려준다. 신들의 놀이터라 불리는 꽝시 폭포 계곡. 폭포 아래에 소풍용 탁자도 마련돼 있었다. ”어디에서 오셨어요?” ”프랑스에서 왔습니다. 내 친구는 라오스계 프랑스인이고 여기는 아들입니다. 저는 폭포에 처음 와봤는데 라오스는 자연이 아름다워요. 그리고 제 친구 가족과 좋은 시간을 보내고 있고 잠시 후에는 저도 물에 들어갈 겁니다.” 계곡에선 여행객들이 물놀이를 즐긴다. 폭포 주변 나무에 만들어놓은 다이빙대. 청년들이 용감하게 물속으로 뛰어든다. 스릴을 좋아하는 사람이라면 그야말로 안성맞춤인 여행지다. “폭포가 너무 아름답습니다. 아내와 함께 처음 이곳에 와봤는데 아름다운 폭포와 수영을 즐기는 것에 대해서 다른 사람들에게 많은 얘기를 듣고 왔습니다.” 짐을 놓아두고 너나 할 것 없이 물웅덩이로 향하는 여행자들! 오랜 세월 침식작용으로 생긴 계단 모양의 천연 풀장이다. 이곳에서 하루 종일 물놀이를 즐겨도 좋을 듯 했다. 원시림의 아름다움을 찾아 산을 오른다. 울창한 숲을 지나 만난 것은 폭포의 물줄기가 처음 만들어지는 곳. 제1 꽝시 폭포다. “폭포가 아름답네요. 방금 와서 보고 있는데 너무 아름답습니다. 수영도 하려고 합니다. 너무 좋아요.” “라오스의 음식과 산, 자연을 보고 싶어서 왔어요.” 무더운 기후에도 시원함을 뽐내는 청정지역 꽝시 폭포! 굽이굽이 펼쳐진 계곡이 수많은 여행자의 마음을 사로잡는다. 거대한 폭포 주변에는 이끼로 장식된 바위와 에메랄드빛 호수가 있어 꽝 시 폭포를 더욱 아름답게 채색한다.

With Bangbieng behind me, I ran through an endless curving road. We headed to Luangprabang where we can see the true face of Laos. It is the capital of the old Kingdom of Laos and its history and culture are alive and well alive. In 1995, UNESCO selected the entire Luang Prabang region as a World Heritage Site. I headed to Mt. Kang, located on the outskirts of Luang Prabang. Right here is the beautiful Kangxi Waterfall. Trees in dense forests cover the midday sunlight. The Kangxi Falls Valley, called the playground of the gods. There was also a picnic table under the waterfall. Where are you from? I'm from France. My friend is a Laotian Frenchman and this is my son. I've been to the waterfall for the first time and Laos is beautiful in nature. And I'm having a good time with my friend's family, and after a while I'll be in the water. In the valley, tourists enjoy swimming. Waterfall Around the diving area made of wood. Young men bravely jump into the water. If you like thrills, it's a perfect trip. The waterfall is so beautiful. I have been here for the first time with my wife and have heard a lot about others enjoying the beautiful waterfalls and swimming. Travelers who leave their luggage and head for the pool without you! It is a stair-shaped natural pool that has been eroded for many years. It would have been nice to have a dip all day here. Find the beauty of the primeval forest and climb the mountain. It is the first place where the waterfalls of the waterfall are made when we meet through the dense forest. The first is the waterfall. The waterfall is beautiful. I just came and looked and it is so beautiful. I'm going to swim. It's so good. I came here to see the food, the mountains and the nature in Laos. A clean area that boasts coolness even in a hot climate. The rolling valley captures the hearts of many travelers. Surrounded by giant waterfalls, there are rocks and emerald lakes adorned with moss, which makes the waterfall more beautiful.

Luang Prabang Wat Visoun
Wat Visoun was built for King Visounnarat around 1512. The original massive timber temple was destroyed by a marauding gang in 1887. The current temple built around 1898 has few of the striking features of the original, except for the carved entry doors which were saved from the original and reinstalled in its replacement.

Luang Prabang, or Louangphrabang (Lao: ຫຼວງພຣະບາງ, literally: Royal Buddha Image (in the Dispelling Fear mudra), pronounced [lǔaŋ pʰra.bàːŋ]), is a city located in north central Laos, at the confluence of the Nam Khan river and Mekong River about 300 km north of Vientiane.

Muang Sua was the old name of Luang Prabang following its conquest in 698 A.D. by a Tai prince, Khun Lo. Khun Lo had been awarded the town by his father, Khun Borom, who is associated with the Lao legend of the creation of the world, which the Lao share with the Shan and other peoples of the region. Khun Lo established a dynasty whose fifteen rulers reigned over an independent Muang Sua for nearly a century.[citation needed]
In the second half of the 8th century, Nan-chao intervened frequently in the affairs of the principalities of the middle Mekong Valley, resulting in the occupation of Muang Sua in 709. Nan-chao princes or administrators replaced the aristocracy of Tai overlords. Dates of the occupation are not known, but it probably ended well before the northward expansion of the Khmer empire under Indravarman I (r. 877-89) and extended as far as the territories of Sipsong Panna on the upper Mekong.[citation needed]
Monks collecting alms at dawn in Luang Prabang
In the meantime, the Khmers founded an outpost at Xay Fong near Vientiane, and Champa expanded again in southern Laos, maintaining its presence on the banks of the Mekong until 1070. Chanthaphanit, the local ruler of Xay Fong, moved north to Muang Sua and was accepted peacefully as ruler after the departure of the Nan-chao administrators. Chanthaphanit and his son had long reigns, during which the town became known by the Tai name Xieng Dong Xieng Thong.[citation needed]
The dynasty eventually became involved in the squabbles of a number of principalities. Khun Chuang, a warlike ruler who may have been a Kammu (alternate spellings include Khamu and Khmu) tribesman, extended his territory as a result of the warring of these principalities and ruled from 1128 to 1170. Khun Chuang, a single family ruled over a far-flung territory and reinstituted the Siamese administrative system of the 7th century. At some point, Theravada Buddhism was subsumed by Mahayana Buddhism.[citation needed]
Xieng Dong Xieng Thong experienced a brief period of Khmer suzerainty under Jayavarman VII from 1185 to 1191. By 1180 the Sipsong Panna had regained their independence from the Khmers, however, and in 1238 an internal uprising in the Khmer outpost of Sukhothai expelled the Khmer overlords. Xieng Dong Xieng Thong in 1353 became the capital of Lan Xang. The capital was moved in 1560 by King Setthathirath I to Vientiane, which remains the capital today.
In 1707, Lan Xang fell apart because of a dynastic struggle and Luang Prabang became the capital of the independent Luang Prabang kingdom. When France annexed Laos, the French recognised Luang Prabang as the royal residence of Laos. Eventually, the ruler of Luang Prabang became synonymous with the figurehead of the French Protectorate of Laos. When Laos achieved independence, the king of Luang Prabang, Sisavang Vong, became the head of state for the Kingdom of Laos.
Aftermath of Franco-Thai War Thailand occupied the city, since the Mekong River became the international border in the area. After the end of World War II, the Thai government returned Luang Prabang back to French. On March 9, 1945, a nationalist group declared Laos once more independent, with Luang Prabang as its capital. However, Colonel Hans Imfeld, commissioner of the French Republic, entered Luang Prabang on 25 August 1945 with a force of Franco-Laotian guerrillas and received assurances from the King that the French protectorate was still in force.[3] Luang Prabang remained the royal capital until 1975, when the Pathet Lao communists seized power with North Vietnamese support and ended the ancient monarchy.

The Secret Waterfall - Near Luang Prabang, Laos
Recently we went to a waterfall outside of Luang Prabang, Laos. In the expat community it is known as the secrtet waterfall, because few people know about it and they like to keep it that way. There is the big well known waterfall that gets super busy, but this one, although much smaller, hardly gets any visitors. We enjoyed a wonderfully relaxed afternoon at the secret waterfall.
