Welcome to Phongsali Hotel & Information

Phongsali Introduction

Phongsali is situated in the northern most part of the country sharing borders with China and Vietnam. With its strong Chinese influence and large number of local ethnic groups, Phongsali is one of the most fascinating and unique towns in Laos. The picturesque Chinese Quarter features narrow, crowded cobblestone streets lined with small, low-roofed houses made of wood and stone.

The town winds along the top of mountain ridges in the shadow of Phou Fa, or Sky Mountain. Spectacular views fall from either side: deep valleys and rolling mountains of patchwork. At an altitude of 1,400 metres, Phongsali can get very cool in the winter months. At night its height and distance from other towns means that the view of the stars is magnificent.
