Off the beaten path: Laos

Laos is the least westernized, most Buddhist and most laid-back Indochinese country. Because of this, there are great many forests, mountains and wildlife to explore for the ones who like to travel off the beaten path. You can sit inside the weird jar in the Valley of the Jars and decide whether it belonged to a giant, seek the King Cobra, play Kator, visit many unique temples and see some unusual architecture.
