💬 Language
Lao is the official language. English limited but growing in tourist areas. French spoken by some older people.
🚆 Transport
Laos-China Railway is new and connects Vientiane to Luang Prabang. Slow boats on Mekong. Minivans and buses for intercity. Roads can be challenging.
💳 Payment
Heavily cash-based. ATMs in main towns. Thai Baht and USD accepted in some places alongside Lao Kip. Credit cards at upscale hotels only.
📋 Travel Basics
Tropical climate. Tap water not safe. UXO (unexploded ordnance) remains in some rural areas — stay on paths. Very affordable destination.
