Mr Sayasone Panyathip, said people flocked to the town and spent several days there, soaking up the atmosphere and enjoying the many tourist attractions and eateries.
The most encouraging outcome was the positive response from business owners, workers, and local residents, who welcomed the visitors and provided them with good hospitality, he added.
