It's a two day boat ride from Chang Khong Thailand to Luang Prabang with an overnight stop in Pak Beng. A whole lotta river. Which is why the accompanying piece on luxagraf borrows its title from Edward Abbey: Down The River.

A cool temple in Luang Prabang. Read about Luang Prabang: Down The River.
