Destacados
Casting aside one’s prejudices of what defines a country’s capital is fairly easy when arriving in Vientiane; Laos’ government and administrative centre just doesn’t fit in this box. Yet, this also highlights the uniqueness of the country’s largest city where life seems to move at a slightly more relaxed pace. Added to the fact that there is more than meets the eye, you will touch the essentials of locally vibrant, yet truly Laos’ contribution to the world’s capital list. From enigmatic temples to dashing street-side examples of somewhat unhurried lifestyle, Vientiane leaves a lasting impression as a truly charming destination.

Itinerario
At approximately 8 am, your guide and driver for the day await you at your hotel. Our first stop will be the Wat Sisaket, the oldest monastery in Vientiane, built in 1818.
Continue to nearby Ho Phra Keo, the former Royal temple, now a Museum of Buddhist art and sculpture. The building housed the Emerald Buddha until it was taken to Bangkok following a skirmish with the Lao in 1778.
A short stop at the nearby Wat Simeuang will show that there are different styles of temples available in Vientiane, each with its characteristics.
After a delicious local lunch at a local restaurant in the capital, we drive further to the That Luang with its golden stupa in the characteristic banana flower shape. This is the most revered shrine in Laos and of course, cannot be missed. Its central structure is 45 meters tall and echoes the curving lines of an elongated lotus bud, the original stupa, said to contain a relic of the Lord Buddha.
This victory gate, also known as Anousavali, was constructed in 1958 and is better known as the Patuxai Gate; its architecture is inspired by the “Arc de Triumph” in Paris and incorporates typical Lao motifs including the Kinnaree, the mythical bird-woman. Energetic visitors can climb the top of the monument and enjoy a panoramic view of Laotian capital.

About Vientiane
Vientiane, capital of Laos, is a slow river city on the Mekong, with a golden stupa, French-era boulevards and a riverside promenade.
Vientiane stands on the east bank of the Mekong, facing Thailand across the river. It is a low-rise and unhurried capital, laid out under French rule with boulevards, bakeries and colonial villas among its temples. Pha That Luang, a golden stupa rising from a walled courtyard, is the national symbol, and Patuxai, a victory monument modelled on the Arc de Triomphe, stands at the end of the main avenue.
Top-ranked sights in Vientiane: Patuxai (Victory Gate), Pha That Luang, Wat Sisaket (Wat Si Saket).
