I went there earlier this year, I'd skip Vientiane it was boring ass. Luang Prabang was much better, much smaller, more relaxed. Stayed at a place called 3 Nagas which was pretty nice boutique style hotel, I'd recommend it. There's another place in Laos that's more popular with backpackers and probably has a more interesting nightlife, can't remember what it's called though

I never made it there.

Are you going to checkout Cambodia or Vietnam? both seemed more happening in terms of nightlife than Laos. Of course Thailand has plenty going on too.

Ok, i was just told by another friend of mine that Luang Prabang is much better aswell

Does that place Nagas have internet? or is near any internet cafe with wireless?

And no, i wont be hitting Cambo or Vietnam most likely, just gonna hang out in Laos for a week or so to help with my Thai visa (because of the new Thai visa regulations)

thanks for your suggestions and info sacX

hahaha, well i better take your advice (from experience)

sacX · 10-08-2007, 08:17 PM

yeah there was wireless internet although I'm not sure the signal reached to all the rooms. The morning I was leaving there was a power cut for Luang Prabang that was scheduled to last a couple days, so I'm not sure how consistent the power is

. I'm glad I missed the cut anyway. There were definitely a couple of restaurants on the main road that had wifi.
