Information | Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia | |  Vietnam
Vietnam
stretches over 1600 km along the eastern coast of the Indochina
peninsula from 8' 34"N to 23' 22" N. The land mass is 329,566 square
kilometers, making it larger than Italy and slightly smaller than
Japan. Vietnam is a country of immense beauty and geographical
diversity. The country is roughly divided into three main areas: North,
Center and South. The main feature of the North of Vietnam is mountains
and forests along with the vast Mekong River Delta. The North is also
home to the Gulf of Tonkin and a maze of islands in the bay. Central
Vietnam is made up of agricultural plains wedged between the Truong Son
Mountains and the East Sea (South China Sea) making some dramatic
mountain passes overlooking ocean vistas. The Mekong Delta dominates
the south of the country.

is the country where travelers can really escape from the stress of the
modern world and get into the tranquility of the world dominated by
Buddhism. One of the highlights of Laos is Luang Prabang nestled in the
northern mountains. The ancient city is recognized as one of only a few
World Heritage sites by UNESCO. No traffic jams, monks seeking their
morning alms, ancient temples...
Here is a brief background on
Laos, the little-known South East Asian country locally referred to
simply as Lao, or Lao PDR. The official name is Lao People's Democratic
Republic. Learn a little about Lao's recent political history.
|  Cambodia
You've trusted your
eyes your whole life, but visit Cambodia and you just may start
doubting them. How else to explain the unthinkable splendour of the
9th- to 13th-century Khmer temples, the tropical islands with barely a
beach hut in sight and the untold adventures lurking in northern
forests?
Cambodia
promises a rollercoaster of emotions and experiences to the intrepid
traveller. Your heart will race at Angkor Wat, one of the world's
greatest achievements, only to haltingly derail when faced with the
impact of humankind's darkest moments. After two decades of war and
isolation, only now is Cambodia truly starting to recover from the
Khmer Rouge's genocidal 1975-79 rule. |
