Why Digital Matters in a UNESCO City

Visitors search before they arrive: “best waterfalls,” “Luang Prabang café,” “guesthouse near Night Market.” If your business is easy to find on Google, shows clear photos, and answers key questions (hours, menu, price, location, booking), you win the click — and the customer.
