    Historic Buddhist Caves
    Tham Pha is a peaceful cave which is located about 3 kms from the village of Nong Tang, which is also known as Muang Sui. It is about 50 kms from Phonsavan, the provincial capital along a sealed road. Set in an attractive area of forest and limestone peaks, it will appeal to both natural and history lovers.

    The main attraction inside is a huge seated Buddha, which is alleged to be up to 1200 years old. It is in very good condition, so I suggest it has been restored many times or is not as oid as is claimed. There is also a maze of well-lit tunnels for visitors to explore, which contains some lovely limestone formations, antique Buddha statues and occasional wall paintings. Entrance costs a reasonable 10,000 kip.

    First Cave on The Thakhek Loop
    This is the very first cave on the Thakhek Loop. It’s a small cave, with lots of statues of buddhas.

    Good for a quick stop off but there are far better caves further up the loop including: Xieng Liab Cave (swim here) and Kong Lor Cave (take a 2 hour boat ride through the cave).

    There is a family at the main entrance who will sell you your ticket. There’s a young boy who is very angry for some reason! Picture included.

    Epic for Swimming
    Firstly, the best thing about my experience with this cave was the swimming. In 42C heat, it was very nice jumping into the cool water and swimming around for an hour or so.

    I was lucky that, when I arrived, there were no other tourists around so I had the place to myself. You can walk around the water and go to the back of the cave where you will see a large cavern.

    There were signs attached to the trees in the carpark saying 5,000 Kip to park your bike but there was no one there taking any payment.
