Cutting through the centre of Luang Prabang’s UNESCO World Heritage-listed Old Town is a street lined with temples, palaces, French colonial architecture, restaurants and cafes. Sisavangvong Road becomes Sakkaline Road until it intersects with Riverview Park, near the junction of the Mekong and Nam Khan Rivers. Every evening, one section that’s several hundred metres long is closed off to motorists for the Night Market, where about 250 handicraft vendors sell textiles, ceramics, jewellery and artworks.
