For this reason as well, <strong>The Laos River Road <\/strong>will begin on its first night in Bangkok, Thailand. Just enough time to adapt your breathing to the rhythm of South-East Asia. Just a breath. In the morning, after the hymn to Rama X that punctuates the beginning and end of each day, the eyes and heart will go north in a folk train full of the things that the villagers carry. Destination Nong Khai, where the Mekong draws the natural border with Laos.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Having crossed the border via the first <em>Thai-Lao Friendship Bridge<\/em>, heading towards the capital Vientiane, we will keep our eyes &#8211; and feet &#8211; pointed toward Luang Prabang, the cultural centre of Laos, already a Unesco heritage site. In Luang Prabang, a town nestled between forest and river, rich in history, elephants, monks, hidden markets and stories to discover, we learn about the Mother of Waters: the Mekong.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We rent a <em>slow boat<\/em> to sail upstream up the big river and head towards the Golden Triangle. Navigation of almost 300km, two days of travel, from morning to night. Two nights in Pakbeng, a halfway destination, will allow us to immerse ourselves in deep Laos, the one made of trees, mud and river, of monks and prayers, of people and smiles.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the morning, the slow boat will take us to Xuahai Xai, a stopover point in the Golden Triangle and the border with Thailand. The discovery will continue northwards into a land of traffickers, history and stories. <\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1067\" src=\"https:\/\/doogreporter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Laos_20220920_163849.jpg\" alt=\"Laos\" class=\"wp-image-381271\" srcset=\"https:\/\/doogreporter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Laos_20220920_163849.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/doogreporter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Laos_20220920_163849-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/doogreporter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Laos_20220920_163849-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/doogreporter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Laos_20220920_163849-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/doogreporter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Laos_20220920_163849-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Luang Prabang, Laos &#8211;
