Nestled along the shores of the Mekong River, Pakbeng often serves as one of the most picturesque way stations for travelers moving between Luang Prabang and Huay Xai.

Then visit the local morning market to immerse in fresh produce and their homemade crafts sold by various ethnic hill tribes. How about meeting cute elephants? Take short trips to an elephant conservation camp to interact and even feed them. This can be a highlight of your trip as a ethical wildlife experience.
