交通不便一直是老挝发展的瓶颈,也在很大程度上影响了当地旅游。以往游客若想在一次旅途中游玩泰国、老挝两地,必须先乘搭列车前往泰国廊开府,再转由其它陆路前往老挝,旅途迂回不便。随着不久前泰老国境的友谊桥开通,这一问题也迎刃而解,大大方便了游客的旅程。 Inconvenience has always been a bottleneck in the development of Laos and has also greatly affected local tourism. In the past, if tourists want to travel between Thailand and Laos on a trip, they must first take a train to visit the country of Thailand in Kaohsiung, and then transfer to other places by road to Laos. The journey is inconvenient. With the recent opening of the Friendship Bridge in the Thai-Lao border, this problem has been solved, which has greatly facilitated the tourists’ journey.
