Phousi Hill

Mount Puxi is an important attraction in the old town of Luang Prabang, and an important Buddhist holy place. The mountain is not very high. It takes about one or twenty minutes to climb to the top. The upper and lower import and export all pass through the old city. You don't have to worry about getting lost. However, the steps are still steep, coupled with the hot weather, so it is best to choose a more suitable time for one morning and one night. Most people will choose to go up to see the sunset of the Mekong River in the evening, sit quietly on the steps near the Shwedagon Pagoda on the top of the mountain, waiting for the sun to set. The area on the top of the mountain is small and there are quite a lot of people. The trees on the hillside are messy and there are few angles for sunsets, but most people just want to enjoy the baptism of the sunset.

I haven't tried it for a long time, so I sit leisurely with my foreign travel friends and wait for the sunset. The sunset of the Mekong River is so beautiful! The last time I should be watching the international sunset in Cambodia. On the mountain of Pushy Mountain, you can go down the mountain without going back. You can browse the north and south sides of the peninsula by the way.

It feels incomparable with the famous mountains in China. The mountain is more than 100 meters high. There is no cableway. Take the steps to the top of the mountain. There is a temple on the top of the mountain. In the evening, there are more people watching the sunset. The sun reflects the whole sky and the sunset is infinitely beautiful...
