An Extraordinary City in Laos

OVERVIEW

Laos is a little-visited, landlocked nation occupying the northwest portion of the Indochinese peninsula. As with most countries in that region, Laos has experienced its fair share of turmoil resulting from colonization by the Thais, then the French and finally civil war, but the rich cultural history entrenched in the 14th century prevails, to the extent that the entire town of Luang Prabang in the centre of the country was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1995 for its unique and remarkably well preserved architectural, religious and cultural heritage. This extraordinary town is the focus of this five-day exploration.
