The city Asia forgot

Vientiene, the capital of Laos is nothing I expected of a capital city. The place is so quiet and devoid of life! We arrived in the afternoon in the supposed heart of town, only to find that the place was quiet as a mouse. There was the occasional scooter passing by, and a few backpackers here and there in search of food. But apart from that, the place was quiet.

Mind you, it was hot at the time, and I am guessing everyone was doing as this tuk-tuk driver was doing and having a siesta! The funny thing is he has setup his tuk-tuk perfectly for it!

We eventually did find life the next evening however it did take some time to find the people!
