During Awk Pansa (the end of Buddhist Lent), the Buddhist monks and the laity across the country celebrate by lighting up candles, paper lanterns, and fire boats.
In particular though, the town of Luangprabang has taken to this in a much bigger way than some of the other towns and cities in Laos.
As such, it's among one of the places to visit during this time as it presents a real feast for the eyes. Photographers and instagramers, locals and visitors, alike, delight in it.
