Luang Prabang, Laos - Monks passing Wat Sene Souk

Wat Sene Souk Haram or literally Temple of 100000 treasures.

I stayed on the top floor of Villa Sene Souk, directly opposite the Wat (Temple)
Every morning at about 5.00 am the drums would waken the Monks (and me).

Shortly after sunrise the Monks would begin their circuit, walking the streets of the old section of Luang Prabang accepting alms from the people who gathered along the route.

On one morning there was a large group of tourists who were also offering alms to the Monks.

The Monks were usually followed by several dogs, hotly contesting any food that was dropped.

The view from my balcony was a highlight of my stay in Luang Prabang
