More About Laos
Laos is the only landlocked country in South East Asia. It is bordered by China and Burma in the North West, Cambodia in the South, Vietnam to the East and Thailand to the West. The national language is Lao, but French and English can be generally understood in the main tourist areas. This is a stunning area full of lush landscapes, rare wildlife and awe-inspiring temples. There are many very interesting destinations to visit within this enchanting country including Luang Prabang and Laos‘ capital city of Vientiane. Luang Prabang is a UNESCO World Heritage-listed city and former royal capital. You can view the treasures at the Royal Palace Museum, see the famous Vat Mai five-tiered roof and visit Vat Xieng Thong - the town's historic, beautiful temple. Take a trip to the old French capital of Vientiane which has a wealth of holy Buddhist temples and some striking colonial-influenced architecture. There are lots to see here including the Wat Si Saket temple, the fascinating night market and the Buddha Park which is filled with hundreds of Buddhist and Hindu statues. While in Vientiane, you must see the reclining golden Buddha next to the golden stupa, Pha That Luang - it's absolutely beautiful. Currently, there are no direct flights from the UK to Laos so the only way is to fly via another hub. Possibilities include Thai Airways, Vietnam Airlines or Korean Air. Laos is perhaps best taken in as part of a tour so you would get to explore and stay in other areas such as Vietnam and Cambodia - please contact us for further details.
