If you have plans of staying longer (approximately 1 month or more) in Thailand or if you've got an offer to work in The Kingdom, you need to have an exit or process your working permit in Laos. Laos and Thailand are separated by the Mekong River (7th longest river in Asia) that runs through Burma, Cambodia, China, Thailand and Vietnam; making Laos the only landlocked country in Southeast Asia.
Vientiane, (City of Sandalwood) the capital and the economic center of Laos is not that big. At the heart of the city, you can see the Patuxai Park, one of the country's main attraction and their version of the Arc de Triomphe or Triumphal Arc in Paris, France. According to history, America raised fund to build an airfield. However, instead of an airport, Laotian used the money for the Park's structure and dedicated it to some of their countrymen who fought for independence from France. (Hmmmm, made sense ei?)
Patuxai Park fountain's plays a synchronize performance of light and music every night which is really awesome and is very popular for Laotian and other visitors who visit the place.
I was given a chance to see and witness it twice (May and June of 2010) and must say that it was indeed a nice place =)
