The Lao Ministry of Information, Culture and Tourism carried out a survey among 2,591 international visitors from April to December 2017 at Wattay International Airport and the Lao-Thai Friendship Bridge in Lao capital Vientiane, and in northern ancient town Luang Prabang and the southern province of Champassak.

Of those surveyed, 67 percent said they were interested in cultural sites, while 65 percent said they were primarily attracted to areas of natural beauty.

Luang Prabang in the north ranked sixth with over 472,000 visitors.
