Laos has become for a few years a very valourable destination. Far from typical images such as "white sand and coral sea", this country has stayed apart from the frenetic steps to modernity of its neighbours. Today, Laos is still a country of preserved traditions, hosting many different ethnic minorities and cultures. It shows numerous waterfalls and rivers, beautiful landscapes with primary forests inhabited by a wild life that attracts scientists from the whole planet. Laos also keeps a permanent link to history and recent French presence, by preserving as much as possible the remaining colonial architecture in many cities. |
