Laos Cultural Heritage 5 Days

Duration:5 Days/ 4 Nights

The fragmentation of the Lao kingdom at the end of the 16th century saw Luang Prabang become a militarily weak independent city state paying tribute to the surrounding kingdoms. Ultimately the 1887 sacking of the city by the Chinese Haw lead the Luang Prabang monarchy to accept the protection of the French,whose influence led to the construction of the many fine colonial villas that sit harmoniously alongside the traditional Lao architecture.
