Driving around Vientiane for 3 days and 2 nights

This trip, we drove across from the Nong Khai border checkpoint.

What to do when arriving in Laos is:

1. Buy a roaming package in advance (or buy a Lao SIM card) because after crossing to Bao, the signal is not good.
2. Buy 7-day car insurance for about 140 baht.
3. Exchange Kip (exchange at the green bank for a better rate).

It is recommended to do the border crossing during the day because it is not dark and it is relatively easy to contact.

On this trip, we mainly visited:
1. Pha That Luang, the place that was founded at the same time as Vientiane.
2. Patuxai (I recommend coming at night because there is a beautiful fountain show and beautiful lights.)
3. Parkson Department Store, which has many strange products and a food court with inexpensive prices.

This was a very impressive trip. If anyone wants to drive around, don't forget to stop by Vientiane. #Vientiane #Laos #DriveAway
