Luang Prabang, Laos: Boat to a Pottery Village
Pots are spun and baked in this small village, mostly for the hotels in town.
December 28, 2010
We've heard that Laos is like a respite from the go-go bustle and tourist hustling of Cambodia and Vietnam. It sure slowed us down, although I think we were still the fastest moving people in the city Luang Prabang because we packed in seeing the ENTIRE town in the one full day we spent in Laos.
We hit this pottery village on the other side of the river, via boat. The villagers throw pots and bake them in a deep hole in the ground for almost a week. They heat the natural kiln with firewood.
