In 1950, the almost 700-year-old royal city of Luang Prabang became a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The market is bustling with vegetables, fruit, colorful robes and silk scarves.

At the morning market you can get exotic things like snakes, bats, rats, squirrels, etc. Not for the faint of heart.

The Morning Market
This small market is the Laotian "supermarket," where fresh fruit, vegetables, and meat are offered in display cases that don't always correspond to what we're used to in most of our countries. Some produce comes from the surrounding jungle and will certainly be highly exotic to travelers from Western countries.

Starting at 8 a.m., this is a bustling place; a typical meeting place for Laotians who come to buy and/or sell. It's a busy place! You'll find many unusual foods such as ox blood in gelatinous cubes, snakes, bats, grilled insects (worms, grasshoppers, bee larvae, crickets, butterfly pupae), fly-covered entrails, caramelized pig's head, and all kinds of leaves and plants used in traditional dishes.
