    Respect is the key that unlocks the deepest experiences in Indochina:

    • Dress modestly (shoulders and knees covered) at all temples and royal sites.

    • Remove shoes and hats before entering sacred buildings.

    • Speak softly and avoid pointing feet at Buddha images.

    • Ask permission before photographing monks or locals during ceremonies.

    • Never touch or climb on ancient ruins — help preserve them for future generations.
