Pakse is the Southern gate… This city has some buildings dating from the French colonial period. This said, the real Southern architectural gem is unquestionably the very beautiful Vat Phou Khmer temple, classified as a World Heritage by UNESCO. This temple right at the foot of a mountain and facing the Mekong River is somehow different from the other Khmer temples that one can visit in Cambodia.
But the South also means a preserved and wild nature in some parts. We bring you to the Bolaven Plateau to admire pristine and lush nature with abundant flora and fauna. You will also discover the biodiversity of the Xe Pian reserve and the high-quality coffee plantations, cultivated in the southern mountains.
In Southern Laos near the border with Cambodia, width and strength of Mekong River impose respect, particularly at the site called the 4000 islands, where the river splits apart with an impressive wild power.
