Vang Vieng in Laos is one of the most beautiful and, at the same time, one of the most dangerous places in the world. Vang Vieng is considered a youth resort. Many nightclubs, discos, bars, and other entertainment facilities are concentrated along the main street. More than 170 000 tourists from around the world come here in search of alcohol and drugs that are sold freely in this small town.

You can have fun all day and night. After dawn, young people head to clubs, and at the day many travelers prefer active entertainment. A huge variety of sports activities, including a rather extreme ones, such as rafting in an old wheel of a tractor are available for tourists. Such dangerous entertainment became a cause of death of many visitors. According to statistics, more than 20 people are killed each year. The resort has a variety of hotels. Bungalows are considered typical places to live; many experienced tourists prefer this option.
Those who do not want to plunge into the atmosphere of continuous partying will find a lot of other amazing entertainment options. There are many natural attractions nearby, including karst caves, which are best to be explored with a guide. The resort has a lot of ethnic restaurants, but visitors should be prepared for the fact that virtually every restaurant offers a tricky pizza with magic mushrooms and the tea with marijuana.
