Vang Vieng is THE packpackers hangout. To many off them but it isn't too hard to ignore them. Unfortunately Vang Vieng encourages a certain type of people to come along. Every other restaurant and bar offers "HAPPY' things on the menu. And if you don't realise what that means then there is a nice description of the main ingredient of that happy-feeling. From Weed to Opium....
Vang Vieng is in this beautiful spot, along a small and fast flowing river. Gorgeous scenery thanks to the mountians that dot the place. A nice place to relax. Do nothing, swim a bit in the river, go tubing down the river (insert yourself in a big tire and drift down with the occasional stop along the way in one of the riverside bars....). And of course round off the day by sipping a beer while relaxing in a hammock. As demonstrated by Kyaw Kyaw in the picture below.
