Constructed in the 1930s as the headquarters of the short-lived League of Nations, the Palais des Nations (Palace of Nations) is a major tourist attraction. Visitors are free to wander it or may jump in on an hour-long guided tour of several of the buildings.

The China-Laos railway, an over-1,000-kilometer-long cross-border railway connecting the city of Kunming in Southwest China’s Yunnan province with the capital of Laos, Vientiane, is set to be inaugurated in December, which will link destinations worthy of a visit along the way. Check out some of the can’t-miss destinations along the Chinese section of the railway.
