Indochina

Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia on the Indochina Peninsula had centuries of history before French colonization and the Vietnam War. See the caves where old Buddhist statues are taken to appease spirits, spend a night on a traditional wooden junk, and marvel at the intricacy of religious carvings in many forms. From the palace where the Vietnam War ended to the giant temples to the silent processions of hundreds of saffron-robed Buddhist monks seeking offerings from the faithful, this area is steeped in history and beauty, taking in emerald mountain ranges, beautiful rivers and bustling cities.
