การเดินทางที่แสนยาวไกลกับภูหัวโล้น @ไซสมบูน (Xay Som Boun)

🌄 Phou Huah Lorn or the nickname Switzerland of Laos is not an exaggeration. It is very beautiful. The distinctive feature of the mountain is the “bald mountain” covered with green fields contrasting with the morning mist. The view of each mountain is layered and overlapping, beautiful in 360 degrees. The path to the viewpoint is not difficult at all. It takes about 30 minutes to an hour, depending on your walking pace. 🚗 The walk up the mountain is not difficult, but the journey from Thailand to Xaysomboon is very difficult. It is extremely tough, with winding roads, uphill and downhill, and the journey takes a long time, 6-7 hours, maybe 8 hours. 😂 Stop to rest, eat, and use the bathroom. – We started from Nong Khai Province → Entered the Lao border → Rented a van. At that time, there were probably 7-8 of us. Or if anyone wants to take a bus or van, there are also those (if the Bung Kan bridge checkpoint is open It is more convenient to cross this side, it is closer.) – I recommend staying at Saisomboon for 1 night (there are many accommodations near Phu Hua Lon with reasonable prices). If you arrive before the sun sets, you can go up to take pictures in the evening. However, we arrived in the evening and did not make it in time, so we waited to see the view in the morning. ⏱ The best time During the rainy season, “September–October”, the early season, the grass is green, there is a lot of fog, and the view is magnificent, like a fairy tale. You should go early in the morning, around 5–5:30 a.m., to experience the beautiful fog and first light of the day. 💚💚I must say that even though it is difficult to travel, the view is beautiful and worth it. 💚💚 #Get a discount without relying on luck #xaysomboun #Saisomboon

#GetDiscountWithoutLuck A cafe decorated in a stylish style with lots of photo spots. For those who love taking photos, I recommend coming here. Grab your shutter and keep pressing. The shop has arranged the corners for you. Here, there are both drinks and snacks, and it is also close to the check-in point of Vientiane, which is the Black Stupa. You can take photos from inside the cafe to the Black Stupa view. You will get another beautiful angle. The shop is open every day from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Open the map and search for: Hichillico Café For us, we traveled by driving a private car across from the Thai side, which is convenient. You can park on the side of the road and walk to the cafe. #LaosTravel #LaosCafe
