Laos boasts some of the world’s most beautiful nature. It also has a rich cultural history and there are a great selection of museums. These are the best.

Royal Palace and Museum

The Royal Palace has been transformed into a decadent museum. It boasts a stunning throne room, the golden Pha Bang statue, and the king’s car collection. If you enjoy gawking at fine things, the Royal Palace and Museum is a must.

Lao National Museum, Vientiane

The Lao National Museum is home to a large collection of memorabilia from the country’s recent history. You can also find prehistoric tools, so there is quite a range.

National Institute of Fine Arts

Vientiane’s National Institute of Fine Arts is a Laos essential for art lovers. The gallery is remarkable, and there is even the opportunity to purchase original artwork.

Savannakhet Dinosaur Museum

The best part of every natural history museum is the dinosaurs, and Savannakhet responded to this fact by dedicating an entire museum to the prehistoric animals. The fossil collection is quite impressive.

Traditional Arts and Ethnology Centre

Laos is a culturally rich country with a vast history of arts and crafts among its ethnic minorities. Luang Prabang’s Traditional Arts and Ethnology Centre is the perfect place to learn about Laos’ diverse cultural history.

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.

Would you make the trek from Lunag Prabang to witness the stunning Kuang Si Falls? Let us know in the comments below.
