I was in Boten during the 4 day water outage;
I plugged three girls in the tin shacks and took some photo of the water outage.
The photos are below.

Damn. Looks rough.

Ironically, per your sign-off, generosity might flow like a river but in Boten water sure as hell does not.

Hi All,
Making my virgin trip to Vientiane early next year.
Need some advise on a few questions.

1) Which streets to stay that are convenient to find local street food?
2) which hotel is good and not too expensive?
3) What currency are commonly used in Laos?
4) Is Singapore Dollars accepted in Vientiane money changers?
5) Which streets are the red light districts?

Appreciate your valuable advise.
Thanks Ahead.

If you speak Chinese, you will find much infor in the Xang Jieng Market area. The second time you go there, you will be able to find you own fun places.
I usually stay in the 老挝建国大酒店 for convenience. Bring usd for all money changers.
