In the center of Luang Prabang is a 328 foot hill named Mount Phousi. At the summit is this golden pagoda which shines brightly in the sun. When you stand on the white platform of Wat Chomsi, you can enjoy a panoramic view of the Nam Khan and Mekong rivers, the northern end of the Luang Prabang Mountain Range, dense forests and the city below. Watching the sunset from here is spectacular.
