And no photographs in some buildings and before that you have to remove your shoes and cap.

Of course I’ll always honor different views and vows of country but for me….that takes the fun out of it…why walk through without shoes if you can’t take any pictures.

So the experience for me was kind ok.

    Very nice place to visit with a calm & peaceful environment ideal for a bit of rest while sipping coffe or drinks. Interesting although limited amount of historical items which sit in the traditional building’s environment well. They have the option to dress in traditional clothes and take photos in various spots and settings in the garden and house. The staff who deals with the dressing though, didn’t seem very keen to do their job and acted like we were bothering them by wanting to pay for their services. That’s the only thing they should work on, and the only reason for 4/5 rating. The than that, cool place to visit.

    We did the $10 bamboo/hr weaving course, which was very interesting and quite challenging. Our instructor was very patient with our slow progress and managed to rescue our crafts when we broke the bamboo ?. After the class he gave us a personal tour of the house and was very knowledgeable of its history, happily answering our questions. Overall we ended up spending 1.5 hours with him, beyond even the original schedule. Great time, would recommend.

    Beautiful location, full of amazing flowers and plants. The museum on the first floor is worth the visit, photos well documented and interesting. There is also a little corner for drinks in the garden. Suggested!

    An undiscovered gem, I was the only Traveller here. A refurbished traditional house with more information than its National Museum. Learn about their house visiting ceremonies, the morning alms, dress code, instruments to even culinary arts!

    There is a small cafe with well at the back and a wash room. Do not turn left into the monastery as one of the dogs will bark at you and rile up the other dogs and monks…

    ? Entrance Fees Comes in 3 pricing: • 10K Kip to ‘Walk Around’ (Pretty useless & I’ve asked them to remove this. It’s more for the locals who wanted to rent the traditional dress and take photos I think) • 30K Kip for the ‘Walk Around’ + Museum of the traditional house • 40K Kip for the above plus 1 soft drink (She tried to upsell me this ?) They actually have traditional herbal teas which you should definitely try instead of drinking unhealthy sodas which has no cultural experience nor nutritional value.

    Just top up 10K (Total 50K) to get Iced herbal teas like: Butterfly pea / Pandan / Lemongrass / Bael / Roselle. They are eco friendly and uses bamboo straws. ☺️

    Good place to learn some local culture. Many people take photos with traditional Lao clothing which is very beautiful and elegant.
