• Buddha Park - In tune with the city’s rhythm, your guide and driver will arrive at your hotel at around 9:30pm, ample time to prepare yourself without the rush. The tour commences with an approximately 45-minute drive to the Buddha Park. Situated on the outskirts of Vientiane on the Mekong River is a vast manicured garden lined with trees that is home to over 200 concrete sculptures of Buddha, Hindu Gods, demons and mythological creatures of different sizes.

The park’s most striking sculpture is a huge pumpkin with three levels representing earth, heaven and hell which can be explored via a staircase and at the top offers spectacular views of the park. Despite its interesting sculptures, Buddha Park is not a temple although locals regularly frequent the park to worship its religious monuments like its large reclining Buddha. Built in 1958 by an eccentric business man, The Buddha Park offers great views into neighboring Thailand.

Vientiane is no ordinary capital city. Its strong French influence and role as the governance center of Laos gives it a unique character that’s quite different from the typical hyperactive metropolis. In fact, it’s the exact opposite; the city is marked by tree-adorned avenues, cozy coffee shops, and spiritual shrines that may only experience a traffic jam due to the influx of devotees. Life proceeds at a leisurely pace, particularly by the Mekong river where people gather to observe the sunset.

The enchanting spirit of Laos’ good-natured city extends beyond its borders, unnoticeably influencing the nearby regions. This nearly full-day exploration highlights the often neglected, artistic and warm aspects of Vientiane.
