With its mist-shrouded limestone karsts, peaceful rice paddies, fascinating caves and ancient ruins, the vibrant little jungle town of Vang Vieng is surrounded by some jaw-droppingly beautiful scenery. While new regulations have toned down the wild river party scene which put Vang Vieng on the map, the town remains an excellent destination for travellers keen to indulge in some outdoor adventure including cycling, caving, tubing, rafting, kayaking, zip-lining, and hiking, or simply relaxing and enjoying the idyllic landscape. The town center boasts some excellent international restaurants and boutique hotels making it an ideal base for visitors looking to explore the area’s exquisite natural treasures. Don’t miss the opportunity to watch a spectacular sunset from Sunset Hill, or the chance to swim in one of town’s mind-blowing aquamarine swimming holes.
