Welcome to Laos

Laos

After years of isolation, Laos is now emerging with its tourism industry growing the last few years. This country has a stunning natural beauty, its inhabitants are one of the friendliest people you will ever meet, and their way of life will surprise and desorientate you - but in a good way!

If you are a sport fan, then Laos has everything for you: the mountains and forests of the country will allow you to enjoy some trekking; you can also get around Laos and its green hills by bicycle. And why not experiencing some kayaking? The beautiful Vientiane Province offers tourists the possibility to kayak in the number of rivers that flow through its lands.

But in addition have beautiful landscapes, Laos is also home to several great cities. The first one is of course the capital, Vientiane. This city is the home to the most significant monument in Laos: That Luang (Great Stupa). This monument is the symbol of Lao sovereignity and an icon of Buddhism in Laos. There, you will also find beautiful temples, such as the Wat Sisaket temple (one of the oldest temples in Vientanie), some museums including the Lao National Museum or some parks, like the Buddha Park. But the capital is not the obly city you need to visit while there: make sure to go to Luang Prabang, a small town classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its outstanding cultural, historic and architectural values and its harmonious relationship between the natural and built environment.
