"Escape the hustle and bustle and embrace a simple lifestyle at 'Katup Banna' ( Mueang Lablae)." | Khammouane Tourism

Katup Ban Na (Laplae District)

"" Katup Ban Na "Mueang Lablae" is located between Ban Na and Tham Heub in Khoun Kham District, Khammouane Province. It is about 90 kilometers from Thakhek town along National Road No. 13 North, then turning onto National Road No. 8 within the Thakhek Loop tourism route for 16 kilometers, followed by taking a boat and walking through Tham Luang cave for another 5 kilometers to reach Ban Na. The origin of the name "Mueang Lablae" comes from its geographical landscape of mysterious valleys and limestone karst forests, symbolizing a "hidden land away from chaos"—a tranquil valley where visitors feel as though they have escaped into a private world embraced by mountains and rivers. Escape digital screens and haste to spend time reading a book and sipping hot coffee while gazing at mountain views and grasslands. Rooted in the concept of eco-tourism and a slow-life lifestyle, it blends the traditional "tuup na" (rice field hut) style with comfortable relaxation while maintaining a simple charm close to nature. "Katoop Banna (Mueang Lablae)" in Khoun Kham District, Khammouane Province, is not just a temporary stopover, but a "place to recharge your life's battery," where the simplicity of a field hut meets the majestic and breathtaking beauty of Khammouane's limestone mountains.
