Luang Prabang drawing more Chinese visitors
A large number of Chinese tourists are expected to visit Luang Prabang province this year and may constitute the largest number of all nationalities visiting the world heritage site.
Last year most visitors to the northern town came from Thailand, with Chinese nationals ranking second.
An official from the provincial Tourist Office, Mr Vanphaeng Inthiphon, told Vientiane Times on 11 January that Thai and Chinese citizens have been coming to Luang Prabang in large numbers for several years.
