After two decades of decline on himself , Laos now enjoys stable political and economic structures and opens its borders to foreign tourists, however, the state limits the number of tourists due to lack of infrastructure. Many travelers think that Laos is the most interesting Asian southeast country, perhaps this is due to the fact that Laos remains a country where the tradition remains.
