The ancient tow of Luang Prabang situated in northern Laos , sits on a peninsular at the confluence of two rivers, the Nam Khan and the famous, Mekong. Considered by many travellers and writers as being the heart of Laotion culture, the tiny town is encircled by mountains and is 700 metres above the sea level. Luang Prabang is Laos’ premier tourist destination and Southeast Asia’s most beautiful spot and was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1995. Luang Prabang was the ancient royal capital of the LanXang Kingdom until King Phothisarat moved the administrative seat Vientiane in 1545. The town of Luang Prabang owes its present name to the Pha Bang, a revered Buddha image (now in the Royal Palace Museum) which was brought to the town in the early 1500s. http://worldin1001view.com/beaches/historical-tourist-attractions-in-southeast-asia/, 31.07/2016. 22:55 What might a tourist do after reading the text?
