Morning Market in Laos | Laos Travel Vlog

We woke up very early to go on a hike up Mount Phousi in the heart of Luang Prabang. On our walk there, we came across the morning almsgiving (thak baht), during which people give offerings to monks in exchange for blessings. While we appreciate the ceremony and that tourists can participate, we felt it was slightly commercialized and disingenuine. What do you think?

As we made our way up Mount Phousi, we were greeted by overcast clouds of smoke produced by the burning of nearby croplands and forests. The haze didn't make for a picturesque view but it was nonetheless an enjoyable experience. After Mount Phousi, we made our way to the morning market, where we had breakfast. The market vibrant colors and sounds, bustling vendors, and aromatic foods truly ignite your senses. It's a must visit while you're in Luang Prabang. Make sure to go early!

About us:

In May 2018, we got married, quit our jobs, and booked a one-way flight to Bangkok, Thailand. It's not that we were unhappy with our lives, we just wanted to live more intentionally and abundantly. Stepping away from a traditional lifestyle of home to work, and repeat, was one of the best decisions we could've made. It has allowed us to grow into our new marriage, see more of the world, and learn about other cultures. We've traveled to five countries in Asia and counting. Our channel is a mix of lifestyle, travel, and general entertainment.
