In the park nearby, at the bank of Mekong River, I heard soothing music. This was from an all Lao women Tai Chi class.
Not that the capital city of Laos, Vientiane, is much different. One early morning there I walked on the near empty major street where the “Lao National Cultural Hall” is located.
The driver of a tuk-tuk was even more laid back; he was taking a nap in the hammock hung inside his vehicle.
There were very few cars or motorbikes. The driver of a parked cyclo just smiled and said sabai-dii (Hello).
Luang Prabang with its 60,000 inhabitants is a town in transition. It gives a glimpse into the Lao traditional life. You may still see a monk in his traditional dwelling (koutis) through a hole shaped like a lotus.
