The reason the Railway station build outside the city is Luang Phrabang is UNESCO city. The height and scale are subject to restrictions. The application for such permit at UNESCO head office in Paris will take years if not decades. The same thing happen in Ayutthaya Thailand which the archeologists and culture department strongly against the planned location.
@tomontour9986 it is not only in Laos in this regard. The new Bangkok railway station is also far away from city. Because there is no land available for upgrading at the old station. Unlike European countries. Upzoneing policy and proper city planning is somehow lacking in most south East asia nations
@@mabo9636 dont always compare asian or african or south america to eaurope . Europe has very small countries with very few people. Only Germany and France have more than 50 million people. The whole world does not have to look like Europe or the bloated US . Asia, Africa or South America have their own cultures, infrastructure needs and are dymnamic. Europe is a controlled and regimented society.
There are squat toilets and seat toilets at both ends of each car. In fact, you have already photographed the door of the seat toilet when you walk from the squat toilet to another car. Why not walk 2 meters to take AV of the seat toilet?
Welcome to lao 🇱🇦

Makes totally senses but it's still far out of the city.
