Nong Khiaw
This riverside village in Laos's Luang Prabang province with a café and restaurant scene that punches well above its size, Nong Khiaw sits on the Ou River amid limestone mountains. Many travellers stop here en route to the more remote Muang Ngoi upstream, but the town holds its own as a base for exploring the surrounding area, with road access and a solid range of accommodation.
