Laos

Phongsaly is a city in northern Laos with a population of around 199,900. It follows Laos time and lies in the country’s mountainous northern region.

Travellers arriving by air can use Boun Neua Airport (PCQ), which serves Phongsaly. The city is inland, and there are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres, so a visit is focused on the northern Lao landscape rather than the coast.
