Boun Ok Phansa – Let the Philosophy of Buddha Heal Your Souls

The last day of Buddhist Lent- Boun Ok Phansa which falls in the month of November is traditionally a day full of religious activities and rituals such as going to temples, candlelight processions and several other decorations. To anyone who visits Vientiane in the month of November, this religious event can be considered one of the best things to do in Luang Prabang where a lot of blessings are incorporated with everything you undertake as a part of this holy day.

The series of events also consists of colourful segments such as fireballs and the days are generally followed by a boat racing festival with a lot of enthusiasm and excitement. This event brings good exposure opportunities to the international crowd as well who are residing at properties the likes of Avani+ Luang Prabang because it is all about the religious culture and traditions in the country of Laos, which are identical and unmatchable to any other religious events of other countries.
