Laos a Beautiful Place to Visit

-


                                                      My Wonderful Homeland

       Today I’m going to talk about my country Laos. Laos is one of the wonderful
countries in Southeast Asia. There are a lot of beautiful places, and touristic attractions
that want you to visit. Some people might not know where Laos is. Laos is in
Southeast Asia, bordered by Myanmar, China, Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand.



      Our capital city is Vientiane and it’s also my hometown city. If you come to visit Laos
I would recommend you to visit Luangprabang, it’s one of the nice cities to go to. It’s
located on the northern part of our country and is recognized as a UNESCO World
Heritage Site. It is a peaceful city with a lot of natural places.


      Another thing that I really like about my country is the food, most Lao people
like to eat spicy food especially papaya salad, ground pork salad (larb mou)
with sticky rice, etc.



My country has nice traditional garments which are called “Sinh” and “Salong”. Sinh
is a traditional garment for women and Salong is for men. There are made of silk.
Lao’s women will normally wear sinh to the temple, to some places of work,
for special ceremonies, and also in a lot of Lao schools the women students
have to wear the sinh too.

Things to do in Vang Vieng that you can’t miss        I really want to recommend you more touristic attractions in my country, Laos. The place that I am going to talk about is called Vang Vieng. Vang Vieng is a small town that has so many activities to do, plenty of restaurants where you can try some Lao food. Vang Vieng is the right place for your relaxed vacation. There are a lot of natural places and adventure activities that you can experience.       The things that I really love to do when I go there is kayaking along the Song River (Nam Song)       People like to go tubing down the Namsong River, go cycling around Vang Vieng, go hiking to the Pha Ngern Mountain viewpoint,  ride in a hot air balloon to see the view around this amazing town. A lot of people say that Vang Vieng has the cheapest price for riding a hot air balloon. ...

Great Time of the Year : Lao New Year      Time goes by so fast, I couldn't have imagined that now is almost the end of the year. December is a month that has two important celebrations, Christmas and International New Year. People will enjoy to celebrate these holidays all over the world. I think other countries have their own New Year celebration as well as my country. We also celebrate New Year which is called “Pi Mai Lao” or “Lao New Year”. It’s celebrated during 3 days, around April 14 to 16 every year. People pray and pour water with perfume and flowers to Buddha statues approximately in 9 temples because Lao’s people believe that it’s a lucky number. It’s find to do more or less ,but it’s better to do as an odd number of temples. We believe that this execution will make you have good luck, and you can wash all bad luck away. Then you are going to have good things and good news all year.     ...

Today I wrote from a creative writing prompt not about Laos.  I like it and I would like to do it again on Wednesday A Secret Passage in an Egyptian Pyramid My class took a field trip to Egypt to learn about the ancient Egyptians. We traveled up the Nile River to the Pyramids at Giza. It was a hot, sunny day when the bus arrived at the entrance to the Pyramids. Our class went into the pyramid with a tour guide who showed us through the passages and explained the history of the pyramids. I had a book on hieroglyphics and I found an interesting picture. I looked it up in my book and it said, ‘Press here.’… I pressed the button and a secret passage opened. At that time all of my friends had been walking in front of me and were far away.   So, I couldn’t have called anyone. I decided to walk slowly toward the huge room that immediately opened. When I got there, I couldn’t believe my eyes. I saw massive valuables, ancien...
