Kuang Si Waterfall - Laos
The Kuang Si Falls, sometimes spelled Kuang Xi or known as Tat Kuang
Si Waterfalls, is a three tier waterfall about 29 kilometres (18 mi) south of
Luang Prabang. These waterfalls are a favourite side trip for tourists in Luang
Prabang. The falls begin in shallow pools atop a steep hillside. These lead to
the main fall with a 60 metres (200 ft)cascade.The falls are accessed via a
trail to a left of the falls. The water collects in numerous turquoise blue
pools as it flows downstream. The many cascades that result are typical of
travertine waterfalls.
The locals charge a nominal admission fee to visit the site, but it is
well maintained with walkways and bridges to guide the visitor. Most of the
pools are open to swimming (although at least one is closed as being a sacred
site).
