Railway Stations of the World, Luang Prabang

Railway Stations of the World takes us to the Lao People’s Democratic Republic and Luang Prabang.

This station was opened in December 2021.

Rather an attractive station that is very Chinese in so many ways: the furnishings, the layout, signage and even some of the announcements (I think). However, this is crowned by a wonderful architecture complete with local motifs. It really deserves to have more trains than it currently serves, but maybe, just maybe, if the Belt and Road does expand all the way down to Singapore as planned that will happen.
