Morning Alms Ceremony in Luang Prabang Laos with Monks and Folding Stools

by Marley Wang

First light falls through the misty canopy above the Mekong River, illuminating a row of saffron-robed Buddhist monks walking in single file along a paved street in Luang Prabang. Local residents kneel on the wet ground, offering sticky rice into the alms bowls held by the procession. Several wooden folding stools are scattered near the curb, used by elders waiting for the daily ritual. The quiet devotion of the morning, with the golden robes contrasting against the grey stone pavement and the lush greenery of the surrounding temples.
