Early morning in Luang Prabang

It is something special to watch hundreds of monks walk along the street just on sunrise to collect offers of food from people - it is called tak bat ( morning alms) and is a serene ritual. Unfortunately it is a bit of a circus with your groups of Japanese and Germans rushing up close to take photos despite the Loas askingus to be respectful and standing a distance away and not using a flash.
