Some of these signs include elaborate drawings of buses.
The bus station consists of a row of open offices for the different companies that serve the town.
The Burmese script is very elegant, if slightly difficult to decipher for the average visitor to the country. Fortunately, there is always someone willing to help.
The Latin script is very rarely seen on painted signs. Only a handful of companies that target tourists use it to advertise their services.

Am seriously regretting not including Myanmar on the route home to the UK. Laos is firmly on it though and I hope to post some photos of what I've found here soon...
So colorful! Real gems.
Thanks Helen.
I hope you have a great time in Laos Sam. Such a wonderful country! And there is no lack of painted signs, especially in rural areas.
