It is located halfway between the cities and Hoysay Parabang Luang, which was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. To get there, you need to spend two grueling days on the slowly floating barge, so tourists spend one night in the village of Pak Beng. Much faster (but dangerous) to sail on a boat. Each year a large number of boats crash into rocks or sandy beaches and drowned, most often it happens in the dry season when river water is low. View on the Mekong River in Pak Beng we enjoyed it so much that we decided to stay there for a couple of days. It was a feeling that we suffered a few centuries ago. On board the boat recommend that you get the Laotian visa in one of the embassies, such as that found in Bangkok. Visa is also available on some customs and the international airport in Vientiane, "in fact arrive. But be sure to ask all before going on a trip, because the rules can change.
