The Museum of Phongsaly Ethnic Groups’ newly-designed exhibition has been inaugurated in January 2013. It represents the province and its people, as well as their origin and way of life. It also includes information and exhibits about different aspects of their daily life: clothes, music, agriculture, housing, social organization, rituals, and ceremonies, as well as about Buddhism. The museum is located in the centre of Phongsaly town, next to the Agriculture Promotion Bank and Lao Telecom. Given that the museum successfully elucidates Phongsaly's well-known colourful minorities, its entry fee is a worthwhile investment.
Opens Monday to Friday from 08:00 to 11:30 and 13:30 to 16:30.
