Bucket List Beaus: Kuang Si Falls, Laos

Kuang Si Waterfalls can be found within the Laos jungle, next to the Tat Kuang Bear Rescue Centre. The falls are so beautiful that tourists flock from far and wide to admire their natural beauty.

The scene is made up of smaller pools near the top of the falls, where visitors can go for a swim. The waters are enticingly blue and have etched stunning patterns into the rocks beneath over the years.

Accessing the falls can be a little challenging, but it is certainly worth the trek. If you don’t feel like hiking across the beaten path, tuk-tuk drivers in Lunag Prabang will drive you there for a small fee. Entrance to the waterfalls costs 20,000 kip ($2.20) and is paid to the locals who preserve the natural environment.

The largest of the waterfalls is 200ft high and cascades into a large turquoise pool. There are many smaller falls around the area, and you can easily spend an afternoon soaking up the natural beauty and seeking out the perfect shot.
