Top of the list of sights around Luang Prabang are the Kuang Si waterfalls about 25 km out of town. I finally got there today after sharing a pickup with some other backpackers, and saw the bright turquoise waters for myself.
It was as spectacular as reports suggested, not just the large falls near the top of the hill, but all the way up where the water really was the colour in my photos! Had time to explore up to the top for a glance over the edge of the water, then went in the water myself but it was freezing as the sun was not out for very long today. Overall had a great afternoon visiting and heres a few (out of the numerous) photos I took.

Flipping looks gorgeous as usual.
