That afternoon...

After wading through the rain, our stomachs full of Lao papaya salad (underlined repeatedly), and having secured the coordinates of the infamous Sakura Bar for our two nights there... Hehehe...

We headed to find our accommodation... because we had a check-in appointment at half past one... Actually, we had left our heavy backpacks at the lobby before going out to explore the city. I couldn't take it anymore, my back and shoulders were aching, auntie couldn't take it anymore...

Villa Nam Song Hotel ... lives up to its name. Although not large, if you are looking for quality relaxation, choose this place.

Why? Because of the river, the mountains, the view, the food, the easy access, because.... there are many reasons.

For the author, because of the river, the mountains, the view, that's it. Other things can be managed ... but for many people, food and travel are also important. Cheer up, cheer up, cheer up, let's add one more thing... because it's close to the pier, you can also see the local way of life here ^^ This is what I like very much.

Upon arrival, we were surrounded by nature. There were a lot of butterflies. Is there a connection?

We arrived at the appointment, feeling weary after a day of trudging through the rain. We were eager to rest. The staff here are very proficient in Thai. The woman spoke Thai fluently, while the man was more comfortable in English. We gathered that they were neither Lao nor Thai.

Upon arrival, welcome drinks are served, offering the ultimate refreshment.

We booked this accommodation... through Booking.com, a No Smoking room for two nights. The reason we chose this camp was because of the certainty... that is, the uncertainty. Booking is good because it allows free cancellation of bookings within the specified period. So... before the trip, as I said, we canceled this trip and of course we canceled this accommodation once... But the canceled flight did not make the destination at that time in Vientiane. Two weeks before the trip, we came back to Vang Vieng again.... Villa Nam Song, the room we had canceled was still waiting for us.... It really waited for us. We booked again after canceling, and it was still available because... maybe the price was too high for backpackers or maybe it was not well known to Thai people yet. But let me tell you.... The day we checked in, it was fully booked. Hehe, it's good that we were able to book it again....

The staff explained the details, including the breakfast time, and then left. The service was truly excellent.

The moment the door opened…

Her knees buckled, she brought her hand to her chest, then to her mouth, and let out a muffled scream (very dramatic).

It's perfect... so perfect!

We would like to request an extra bed, please.

The best part is the view of the Song River. The staff told us that other rooms do not have this view because they have a garden view. We are happy with this, as being near the water is the best. In the morning, we can see the mountains and the water, which is very refreshing.

Note: Please note that no television is provided in any of the rooms. We do not understand why this is the case.

The sentence is already in English and does not require translation.

Shaky hands... This is a tired shutter release.

The bathroom here is basic, but it's understandable given the emphasis on space.

Thai tourists should be aware that rice in Laos is significantly more expensive than in Thailand. Initially, we assumed that they were charging foreigners a premium. However, we later realized that the high prices are due to the fact that almost everything is imported from Thailand. Thai products are ubiquitous, giving the impression of being at home, but the prices are double what they are in Thailand. This explains why the soap and shampoo provided in our accommodations are so small. Personal opinion: When visiting Laos, it's best to bring your own toiletries.

Ranong, Ranang, beams, Ken, Auntie collected everything.

Don't leave anything behind.

Take a break from the room.... Let Sue Jie take a nap

Turn to nature

South Korea is also coming.

Mountains

And on the other side, Wiang Tara, which the OP couldn't book in time. It's always full....

Full of chill, full of freshness. Breathe in the negative ions, breathe in, breathe in, feel refreshed.

What's not good... Now I've thrown the bag in the water (sorry, my toenails are very black) after wading through mud in the rain all over Vang Vieng.

Butterflies Galore in Vang Vieng: A Nature Lover's Paradise

Vang Vieng boasts an abundance of butterflies, a testament to its rich and diverse ecosystem. This natural wonder adds to the allure of this captivating destination, where stunning landscapes and pristine nature reign supreme.

Million-dollar view restaurant..... Imagine the happiness

Eat, chill, mountains, rivers, life in front of you, it's the best

Please provide the text you want me to translate from Thai to English. I will translate it accurately and professionally, ensuring a high level of quality and academic style.

The food looks familiar, doesn't it?

But when you eat it, the taste doesn't really matter. The atmosphere is more important.

P.S. Lao pineapple is very, very sweet.

Vang Vieng... Not only Vieng Tara is waiting to welcome you. There are many other places... Villa Nam Song is another place that will complete our relaxation. If your destination is Vang Vieng, don't forget to think about it. Because for the author, missing Vieng Tara on the opposite side, there is still Villa Nam Song, another gem of Vang Vieng, waiting to welcome and embrace you when you stay abroad. Impressed... I want to take my family to stay there too.

P.S. Next time, I'm going to stay at Vieng Tara too. Will I be in time?

Thank you for stopping by.
