Laos, a small landlocked country in Southeast Asia where consumption of sticky rice is the highest in the world, gained freedom only around 70 years ago, but the Lao Kingdom of Land XANG was established in 1353 AD. Compared to its larger neighbors Cambodia, Thailand, and Vietnam, Laos is undoubtedly the most overlooked country. Exploring this land is a stepping into unexpected roller coaster ride through culture and nature, combined with heritage sites, Buddhist temples, breathtaking panoramic views, caves, and cascading waterfalls.
The never-ending natural landscapes and predominantly mountainous geography have attracted travelers seeking wilderness and thrilling adventures.
Laos is a place not only for nature lovers, but also for those who appreciate its simple yet unique culture and centuries-old traditions, making it a great destination for those fond of ancient places.
Luang Prabang located in the North part of Laos is a tiny ancient town surrounded by mountains. Inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage Site list in 1995, it is often called the heart of Laotian culture by many travelers.
Despite being one of Asia's least wealthy countries, the Lao people are known for their simplicity and hospitality. Primarily followers of Buddhism, these people have found joy in minimalism..
Now, we are offering you the opportunity to experience their way of life firsthand and discover how easily you can leave behind your luxuries to enjoy simple moments surrounded by happy people.
