Description Monks chanting and praying inside the magnificent Wat Xieng Thong Temple in Luang Prabang, Laos.

I sat through 15 minutes before they switched all the lights off. I thought it was finished until the candles were lit and the chanting continued. An incredible experience, I feel honoured to sit with such beautiful people.

The richness of the culture is lovely enough. The modern nuance of the fan is both connectable, and somewhat funny.

That's how my church's Christmas Eve Mass goes: we have a service, then at the end the lights go out, and we sing "Silent Night" in the darkness with only candles for light. So I can imagine the kind of beauty you experienced. Thank you for sharing this.
