Laos is country located in the South-Eastern Asia and is the only state that does not have access to sea in this region. After years of internal fights, Laos now is finding its internal stability and is starting to develop itself as a touristic destination.
Because of its recent isolation, this land has conserved perfectly its traditions, making it an ideal place for the traveller to touch this genuine lifestyle. Naturally it has some incredible spots like the Mekong valley or the mountains of Annam, and culturally it presents beautiful cities like the capital Vientiane or Luang Prabang.
