Every year some 1.000 000 travelers cross its borders, which still cannot compare with huge number of tourists spreading throughout neighboring Thailand. Let’s discover together the differences and originally which make up the charm of Laos.

 As you known that Laos is a small country and is the least populated Country in South East Asia, with only 6,500,000 inhabitants are living over Laos. The population in the country is not very dense, and its distribution quite uneven, as the upper regions concentrated 80% of the inhabitants.
There are three main tribes according to their habitat: Lao Loum (Lao from the low land); Lao Theung is the same group Kmou (from the hillside) and Lao Sung is the group Hmong (from the top of the mountains). But each group has their own unique culture and customs and officially 49 ethnic groups  
So, I would like to invite to visit my country to learn and experience about Laos, there is a lot of things to see such as histories, cultures and customs.
There is not a modern country and everything still discovered by the nature (green’s country). It covers………. By the forestry and there had divided into three parts in Laos for example: North, Middle and South for each part there has different sounds and dialects     
Laos is a country rich in culture and beauty. Many travelers find the tranquility and spirituality of Laos among the highlights of a visit to Southeast Asia. Beautiful temples, stunning scenery and treks through the forest are all lovely memories to take home, along with unique and attractive crafts, but Laos has more much to offer. It is also a country of centuries-old culture-an aspect which few visitors take the time to explore.
Tourism has grown rapidly in recent years, and is a source of both pride and employment for many Lao people. However, the increasing numbers of visitors can also have negative environmental and social consequences and typically this impact upon the poorest of people. The International Finance Corporation’s Mekong Private Sector Development Facility is working in Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam to promote the Development of sustainable or ‘destination friendly’ tourism that is commercially viable, and at the same time creates broader benefits for society and supports conservation of the natural, historic and culture assets on which tourism depends.
