LUANG PRABANG, LAOS: Buddhist monk and a window to nature

Recent history that, for several decades, virtually closed the frontiers of Vietnam and Cambodia to the western visitor is now being overtaken by the natural hospitality of the Indo-Chinese people and their desire for cultural and commercial contacts.

Laos, with its capital Vientiane and the enchanting little town of Luang Prabang, is one of the region's least commercialised countries and offers a unique opportunity to step back in time and observe a way of life that has changed little for centuries.
