Along the coast are the Viet people, and in the south the huge cultural area of Khmer influence - from Angkor Wat to the Cham ruins in the southeast of Vietnam. The Plain of Jars, in Laos remains one of the most intriguing puzzles of the modern world, and the temples of Louang Phabang are reknowned.

This map shows all of these wonders and many more. This is a very detailed map, prepared in the region, and showing just about anything a vistor would want in a map.
