On
our stop over in Sam Nuea we can have our lunch break (bit later than
normal) and can walk around the city to stretch our feet. The
countryside around Sam Neua is blessed with high mountains and some
great limestone formations. It will pay us back for the fatiguing street
we have managed to travel so far!

Sam Nuea behind, we will reach Vieng Xay, the birthplace of the Laotian
republic. This little sleepy town has been very important in the last
Indochina-war because the former headquarters of the
Pathet-Lao-Revolutionaries. The Lao revolutionaries could hide before
the constant bombings of the US air force. The Lao republic was born
here…in midst this amazing and fascinating landscape which we will
explore. A few hundred caves were counted here and many of them were
inhabited during the war. Time to learn about history! Night in Vieng
Xay.

understanding of land and culture. After lunch, we will discover the
ThamPiew-cave. In fact: a very sad place, because during the war here
were more than 400 people killed in an American attack. Also this side
everybody should see, learn to avoid such “events” in future. Night in
small market town along the way. Night in Phonsavanh

the
jars which we visit today actually came from…and what were the used
for. Some secrets will remain even we don’t know. This day we will spend
visiting a great highland landscape scattered with mysterious jars,
bigger than those in a modern factory. They are big and old and amazing
