👍👍 A stunning place from the moment you enter to the moment you leave. Staff couldn’t be friendlier and had wonderful chats with the co-owners who clearly have a passion and zest for the place. We arrived for breakfast and came back for dinner - stunning setup.

The Art House Cafe
Cafe
👍👍 Nice place. Was packed on the weekend. I tried the spring rolls (better than average) and coffee. Service is also good. Owner/manager made an extra effort to ensure we were happy customers. Enjoy the art displayed on the walls, too, which is available for purchase.

👍👍 ใหญ่กว่าที่คิด เป็นแลนด์มาร์คที่ใครมาแล้วต้องมา ถ้าไม่ได้ก็เหมือนมาไม่ถึง แต่ถึงมาลาก็ไม่ได้รู้สึกแปลกๆอะไร เพราะอยู่ห่างจากหนองคายแค่ไม่ถึง2กิโลเอง ข้ามสะพานมิตรภาพมาก็ถึงลาวแล้ว แถมเดินไปไหนก็เจอแต่คนไทย แต่คนไทยมาเที่ยวน้อยกว่าเมื่อก่อนเยอะนะ คงเพราะหลังๆฝั่งลาวเล่นเราไว้เยอะ คนไทยโดนเหลี่ยมหนักๆ...

Mosque
👍👍 Nothing more satisfying than finding a mosque in a city where Islam has a very small community. Beautiful and very clean mosque at the heart of Vientiane. It's the one of the only two mosques available in the city.

Modern French restaurant
👍 All menus are priced in dollars. (As of the end of june, 2022, edited by owner’s request) Food is great. The atmosphere is good and the staff are friendly. The space outside is beautiful, but it was too hot,, so, We had a dinner inside. Anyways, it is enough to recommend.

Museum
👍👍 What a beautiful and unique museum and collection! We have learned so much in our visit thanks to the guide who was knowledgeable and kind. The collection has incredible sculptures and paintings, all wood! They don’t carve new trees and actually planted many new trees. Highly recommend for a visit

MAG UXO Visitor Information Centre, Vientiane
Museum
👍 We enjoyed our visit to the centre visitor very much, as it highlights the work of the charity very well. It is slightly sparse and you can easily see everything to see here within 1 hour. It feels more designed for a school visit and education - not necessarily a bad thing. Having visited here, we...

Fountain
Tourist attraction
👍👍 Go in the evenings and wait for a fountain sound and light show to begin. It's free and it's also beautiful! Watch out if standing too close to the edge of the fountains - sometimes the fountains cover people in water! The good thing about that is it made people blocking the view move away!
