Kuang Si Falls, Luang Prabang is one of the most beautiful waterfalls in South East Asia. Located just outside the town of Luang Prabang, this stunning waterfall cascades down three tiers into a large turquoise-blue pool with amazing natural surroundings.

Visitors can take a leisurely stroll along well-maintained trails that lead through the jungle or take a refreshing dip in one of the swimming holes located at each tier. For those looking for more adventure, it’s possible to climb up to the top of the falls and enjoy an incredible view while taking in all its magnificence.

Kuang-Si-Falls-28 — One of Our Favorite Selfies

The Kuang Si Waterfalls are breathtaking and are the most beautiful waterfalls we have ever seen! It was definitely one of the biggest highlights of our time spent in Luang Prabang!

The Kuang Si Falls or Kuang Xi Falls (Lao: ນ້ຳຕົກຕາດ ກວາງຊີ), alternatively known as the Tat Kuang Si Waterfalls, is a three-tiered waterfall about 29 kilometers (18 mi) south of Luang Prabang. The waterfalls are a favorite side trip for tourists in Luang Prabang, and begin in shallow pools atop a steep hillside. These lead to the main fall with a drop of 60 meters (200 ft).

They are accessed via a trail to a left of the falls. The water flows into a turquoise blue pool before continuing downstream. The many cascades of Kuang Si are not typical of waterfalls, adding to the attractiveness.
