Old-world sophistication can be found in different parts of the country, especially in Vietnam's Yanqui culture and in the legendary Luang Prabang - this UNESCO-protected gem with 33 Buddhist temples is every traveller's dream, with affordable first-class cuisine and French colonial buildings. Few places in Southeast Asia can compete with such a special blend of chic sophistication and ancient charm as found here.
The good news is that most of the good stuff is cheap or free: renting a bike, relaxing by the riverside, touring temples, shopping at the night market, attending a spa or yoga class, or visiting the mint blue cascades of Quang Si. The ghosts of the French colonisers linger on, while freshly baked croissants emanate from Gallic-style cafes and old Indochinese mansions are reborn as some of Southeast Asia's most elegant boutique hotels. Get ready to relax - Luang Prabang will seduce you effortlessly.
„The Land of a Million Elephants radiates magic the moment you spot a Hmong woman emerge from the mist and walk through a shimmering rice field, or when you hear the sonorous call of one of the country's endangered gibbons.
It's a place where it's easy to take a quick detour and find yourself completely off the beaten tourist path, but it's also a place for luxury and pampering, like a typical French colonial in a spa or under a wooden fan in a top-notch restaurant.
Laos has also established itself as an eco-tourism destination, making extensive use of its natural resources, and whether it's flying down mountain ziplines, riding elephants, exploring underground caves or marvellous temples, Laos will be etched in your memory.
to visit Bangkok is from December to March, when temperatures are more moderate and tolerable for Europeans compared to the rest of the year.
