Description
The Pak Ou Caves are located in Laos, a landlocked Southeast Asian country. Consisting of the "lower caves" or Tham Ting, and the "upper caves" Tham Theung, the Pak Ou Caves are situated twenty five kilometers from the city Luang Prabang and overlook the Mekong River. While the lower caves are easily accessible by boat, the upper levels can be reached by stairs. They are perhaps most famous for the interior collection of Buddhas numbering in the thousands. Tham Ting contains about 2,500 Buddhas while Tham Theung boasts a collection of 1,500. The Buddha images have been constructed with wood, and are displayed on shelves lining the walls and all over the floors. They are in a variety of postures: some are seated, while others meditate or recline.

A legend told by the people of Phetchaburi for centuries, was that Khao Luang Cave was a portal to a âtwilight zoneâ town where the inhabitants were made up of exclusively young maidens. One of the townâs most attractive attractions is Khao Luang Cave, regarded as the largest and most important in the province. It was often visited by the royal family as a meditation and picnic spot since the reign of King Rama IV in the mid 19th century. The cave chamber lies about 90 feet below ground and has numerous openings in the ceiling that bring in natural lighting. The limestone cave is festooned with beautiful stalactites and stalagmites, and more than 180 Buddha statues are scattered around the caveâs 3 main chambers. Of these, the most impressive are the 12 foot high Buddha image and the 16 foot Reclining Buddha, both cast under the royal command of King Rama V.
