Vat Phou
Vat Phou is located in Pakse, Champasak province in southwestern Laos, bordering Thailand and Cambodia, and was recognized by UNESCO as a World Cultural Heritage in 2001. This ancient temple dates back to the 5th century and was once the center of Hinduism, worshiping the god Shiva. When Buddhism became the state religion, Vat Phou was restored and transformed into a Buddhist temple. Vat Phou is not grand and majestic, but brings a feeling of peace, relaxation and simplicity.
Si Phan Don

In addition, tourists can rent bicycles to visit the largest waterfall in Southeast Asia or simply explore the countryside to learn more about the life of traditional Lao people.
