The PAK OU Caves, sacred Buddha caves of Laos.
About 25 km upstream from Luang Prabang, on the Mekong River, are the Pak Ou Caves- a sacred Buddhist site. The Name Pak Ou means Mouth of the Ou since the caves are located where the Mekong and Nam Ou Rivers meet. There are somewhere around 4000 - 6000 Buddha statues of varying sizes, materials and positions. It is the perfect location for a spiritual journey. The white stairs lead into the dark hole cut into the side of the limestone cliff, and you are entering somewhere special.
