Laos' national gate and national landmark, every tourist comes to Vientiane, Laos. The Arc de Triomphe is a must-see attraction. Everyone knows that you have been to Laos.
No.2 Tuluan
Do you find that many China people in Laos use Taruan as their head? This is the business card of Laos. No matter what film or photo album is made to promote Laos, Taruan will be in it.
No.3 Wanrong Bukan Cave
The river in front of the cave is the epitome of Wanrong tourism. As a tourist city in Laos, Wanrong attracts thousands of tourists every day.
4 th lang pulabang night market
This night market has local characteristics of Laos. Many foreign tourists like to visit here and buy souvenirs with local characteristics from time to time. Because of the excellent photo effect, it has become the scenery in everyone's lens.
No.5 shigang plain
The reason why the exposure here is high is because of mystery. What are these stone jars for? After many countries' research, experts have not come up with a statement that can convince everyone. At present, Shigang Plain, located in Kawasaki Province, Laos, has also become a popular tourist attraction.
No.6 Guangxi waterfall
Guangxi Waterfall in Luang Prabang is the representative of natural scenery in Luang Prabang. How can I get to Luang Prabang without going to Guangxi Waterfall? The reason for the high exposure rate is the credit of the photographer. We can't take such beautiful photos with mobile phones.
No.7 Xiangtong Temple
The cultural symbol of Laos is a well-preserved historical building in the ancient capital Luang Prabang, which represents the architectural style of Laos and also reflects the Buddhist cultural heritage of Laos. Is it nice to take pictures?
No.8 Xiang Kun Temple
Xiang Kun Temple, located in Vientiane, the capital, is famous for all kinds of Buddha statues and deities. Because it is also called Buddha Park, its history is not long, but it looks old because of the wind and sun, and this Buddha Park is invisible in other places, so tourists like to take pictures.
No.9 Si Qian Meidao
Si Qian Meidao is located in the Mekong River basin bordering Cambodia in the south of Laos, which is the widest section of the Mekong River in Laos. If Zhu Xiao and Shazhou are included, this figure exceeds 1000, and it is a bit exaggerated for locals to call this area 4,000 beautiful islands. But in fact, 4,000 yuan mainly refers to three islands, Dongkong Island, Dongkuo Island and East Germany Island. Shuttle through the island, looking at the scenery of palm trees and scattered houses on the Mekong River, people have been there and don't want to leave.
10 game market
The game market in Laos can satisfy many people's curiosity, but everyone wants to see it in person and take photos of various games to prove that they have a brave heart.
Another place not on the list is South Russian Lake in Laos, 90 kilometers away from Vientiane. This is an artificial lake, which was formed during the construction of the South Russian power station. The lake is 250 kilometers long, and a large number of trees, including many redwoods, are submerged. South Russia Lake is not only a picturesque reservoir in South Russia, but also a quiet leisure resort and a well-equipped water hotel with its unique and beautiful nature. Unfortunately, many tourists didn't go to this place not because it was not beautiful, but because the traffic was inconvenient.

Introduction of tourist attractions in Laos
Vientiane, a tourist attraction in Laos, was a prosperous commercial center as early as17th century. Modern Vientiane gives people the impression that the streets are not very wide, but the market is very lively.
There are shops on both sides of the street, among which department stores, restaurants, photography and clothing stores are the most. The suburbs are mostly wooden and bamboo buildings with the style of the old dragon people. The front and back of the house are often surrounded by trees or fences to form a large or small yard. In Laos, where the climate is hot, living in such a house is cool and comfortable. Vientiane City faces Thailand across the Mekong River. Every dry season, most of the shallows of the Mekong River are exposed, leaving only a small stream in the middle, so people can wade to Thailand.
