Exploring Laos by the water it is comfortable to use the traditional means of water transportations that is by slow moving boat ride. I really didn´t enjoy a long ride of this kind aside from one trip on my way to the Cave of the thousand Buddha. Just admiring the various colorful and different designs of the boats that serve as ornaments along the river banks and as they pass through the rivers of Mekong is something unique of its kind and such very long boats I never see before even in Philippine waters. The double decked Boats has two purposes: first as a Restaurant called floating restaurants and then a Cruise along the Mekong River.
