1. Buddha Park, Vientiane

June is a good time to visit Vientiane's numerous gardens and parks, as the summer rains wash everything clean and fresh. Buddha Park is one of the most recommended.

A relaxing activity is to walk around the gardens and learn more about the Buddhist stories and culture of Laos.

There you can not only discover the history of textiles that have evolved and been passed down through the generations, but also experience the full process of making silk clothes. You can even try to make silk clothes by yourselves. The staff in the museum are friendly and kind, and would lead you to different parts of the buildings and explain their functions. A half day there would make you quite knowledgeable about Laos' clothing history.
3. The Living Land Farm, Luang Prabang
