Laos

Three golden rings hold all the secrets of Laos. One is hidden underground, in subterranean rivers and deep caves such as those of Vieng Xai. The second is visible to all, in its simple villages of low houses and its cities, its sown fields, its temples and its jungles.

The latter rises above the clouds, where the earthly and the divine meet. Laos is, for infinite reasons, the country of surprises. An ancient and serene home where cities grow as much as the roots of its impressive trees.
