| [Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note |
People have been climbing into the Pak-Ou caves, high above the Mekong river, 25km from Luang Prabang, for maybe a couple of thousand years.
They were used for the worship of the river spirit until Buddhism spread into Laos along the southern route from India. |
