Despite being landlocked on five sides, Laos boasts its own answer to the Thai Gulf beaches within the Four Thousand Islands, a lush archipelago on the Mekong Delta at Si Phan Don, where lazing in a hammock and kayaking the scenic waterways and waterfalls is the order of the day.
Heading upstream from this watery wonderland, national Bio-Diversity conservation areas line up towards northern Laos like a chequered blanket of emerald green velvet, tucking the rice farmland into forest, and serving as a true testament to the country’s eco sustainability commitment.
Frangipani scented capital Vientiane carries an intimate air, with a walkable size and slow pace. Architecturally the city exudes French charm, right down to the fountains and gardens of Patuxai which would look equally at home on the Champs Elysees.
To the north, UNESCO listed city Luang Prabang plays host to an array of ancient temples, stunning tiered waterfalls and dramatic limestone caves awash with gilded Buddah statues hand-carved from local wood. A rainbow of colour pops from every viewpoint, with cool whitewashed buildings and golden temples juxtaposed with brightly coloured canopies covering the spice and silk filled night market.
A host of opportunities await lovers of the outdoor life, presenting exhilaration and entertainment of the energetic kind. Climbing, kayaking, hiking and biking top a list that is tailed by zip wires, up-stream safaris and boating with only birds and bats for company. There’s something for everyone in this unspoilt Laos wilderness that makes for an authentic experience unrivalled by any western nation.
