The ground-breaking ceremony for building a Lao-Vietnamese-Thai cultural village has been held in Laos’ central province of Borikhamsay.
Eight border provinces of the three countries along Road 8B, namely Bolikhamsay and Khammouane provinces of Laos, Nghe An, Ha Tinh and Quang Binh provinces of Vietnam and Noong Khai, Xacon Nakhon and Nakhon Phanom provinces of Thailand, will build their traditional houses, clubs, parks and exhibitions halls in the 197ha village.
The village, which is being built under the agreement reached between the three countries in 2006, will depict the three countries’ housing architectures.
