Our Service City in Laos About Laos General advice How respect and use your head; Eyes and common sense will guide you well in navigating Laos's culture safely. When in Laos, try and do as the Laos do and remember: don't touch heads, don't lose cool with people, and don't flash your flesh. The rest about manners: Shoes left outside, accepting host's greeting; not upsetting religious feeling. The Laos are friendly and hospitable. A minimum of effort will make your trip smooth and memorable. Respect the culture and will earn its respect in turn. How to "nop"? Raise your hands in a playing gesture. The higher you go, the more respect you show, but don't be over the top! Welcome A kiss or embrace from a stranger is insulting and humiliating. Traditionally, Laos's people use the Nop on meeting and using it will win you instant friends if performed sincerely. A handshake will suffice, but try to use the Laos greeting of "sabai dee"

Home Introduction Geography Flora, fauna, ecology ... - Some travel ideas click on the photos to enlarge Religion, arts and languages Culture: When speaking of Lao culture, there is a tendency to mention only the culture of the Laotians of the plains (mainly the western part of Laos) whereas these people make up less than half the overall population. The cultural and religious practices of the minorities can vary considerably, according to the ethnic family or the degree of cultural development. Here we are going to talk about cultural features of the Lao Loum (Laotians of the plains). Religion: Today around 65% of the Laotian population practise Theravada Buddhism, also known as the Little Vehicle Buddhism. This religion was developed in Laos between the 14th and 17th centuries as it gradually took over over animism and Brahmanism. As in neighbouring Thailand and Cambodia, religion has a strong influence on culture and daily life. The monasteries (Wat), which form the centre of collective life, have a social function in addition to their religious role by providing education to children from poor families. Ancient beliefs, in particular the cult of the phi people, exist side by side with Buddhism without any problem. Many feasts or ceremonies practised by Buddhists are ancient animist practices.

Accueil Histoire Voyager au Laos Renseignements divers ... - Qui sommes nous ? cliquez sur les photos pour agrandir Culture: Lorsqu'on parle de culture lao, on a tendance à n'évoquer que la culture des Laos des plaines (principalement originaires de la partie occidentale du Laos), alors que ceux-ci représentent moins de la moitié de la population globale. Les pratiques culturelles et religieuses des minorités peuvent varier considérablement, en fonction de leur famille ethnique ou de leur degré d'acculturation. Nous allons parler ici des faits culturels des Lao Loum (Laos des plaines) Religion: Aujourd'hui, 65% environ de la population laotienne pratique le Bouddhisme Théravâda, dit du Petit Véhicule. Cette religion s'est développée au Laos entre les 14ème et 17ème siècle, en s'imposant peu à peu sur l'animisme et le brahmanisme. Comme en Thaïlande et au Cambodge voisins, la religion inspire fortement la culture et la vie quotidienne. Les monastères (Wat), autour desquels s'articule la vie, ont, en plus de leur aspect religieux, une fonction sociale, en permettant à des enfants issus de milieux peu fortunés, de poursuivre leurs études. Les anciennes croyances, particulièrement le culte des phi, cohabitent sans problème avec le Boudhisme. De nombreuses fêtes ou cérémonies, pratiquées par les boudhistes, sont d'anciennes pratiques animistes.
