Si Phu Hills

The turn to go up from Phu Si Hills only in the Royal Palace Museum. There are entry fees from 20,000 Kip to go up. The rise of the concrete is not easy because of the high hill, I found the children have increased. I soon reached the peak and found the crowd there. I think I underestimated the time and must already exist before.

Si Phu Chomsi Hills


Temple that stands atop a 24m-high That Chomsi. Believed to be built in 1804, he was just back in 1914. This temple is visible on the ground level every Luang Prabang. I can see clearly from the eastern part of the city. It is said that during mid-April, Lao New Year festival, a procession begins from here.

Clearly, most tourists have the same thing in mind - to capture the sunset from the hill. Most of the places well taken. Some people even sleep in the seat or while waiting for sunset. Camera tripods and positioned. If I want a good place where I have come here before. He reminds me of Phnom Bakheng at Angkor archaeological Park where most tourists will flock to catch the sunset.

Si Phu Hills

Crowd that actually annoyed me for some photographers will go to any length to get a good spot. Some even ride to The Edge of the rocks at the top only to get a good view in front of other people. I do not think a shot like that deserves to die. As the sun began to descend, in the crowd melded make it difficult to move and then some people began to block my view. It was annoying and thought it was not feasible anymore. Only take a few pictures with the telephoto lens and leave the place.
