Before embarking on my travels through Southeast Asia, I must confess that I did not know too much about the countries making up Indochina - namely Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos – apart from glowing recommendations from those who had been before me. However, as I researched my trip, my appetite was truly whetted for what I was about to see and experience. I soon learned that amongst the plethora of interesting places to visit within the region are a total of nine UNESCO World Heritage Sites; places recognised by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation as being of such unique interest to the world that they have been afforded special preservation status.
