Caves and Villages
December 2008Our excursions from Nong Khiaw included a bike ride to the Tham Pathok caves, where local villagers and much of the communist government of Luang Prabang province sheltered for months at a time during the second Indochina war to escape U.S. bombing. We also took a boat to several villages accessible only by river and then kayaked back.
