    A panoramic view of the peaceful city
    Golden Buddha is located on the top of a mountain, facing the confluence of the Mekong and Sedon rivers. From this place you can enjoy a panoramic view of the peaceful city of Pakse.

    Great waterfall
    I like nature and waterfalls and this is a good one. There is a trail / steps to take you down to the falls with lookout points. It can be a little steep / uneven in places but navigable.

    The typical architecture of Lao people's culture
    The temple is located right next to the bridgehead into the center of the old town of Pakse city. The pagoda was built with the typical architecture of Lao people's culture. A large temple with a quiet space on the banks of the peaceful Sedon River.

    The bridge is really useful
    I walked across this bridge to visit Wat Phou Salao. The bridge is really useful for people when crossing the two banks of the Mekong river in this area.

    Lots of stairs!
    Last waterfall on our trip to the Bolaven Plateau. We stayed at the Tad E-Tu resort so walked down from our cabin. Lots of stairs to get down, classically all very steep, slippery and the handrail is in some parts wobbly or broken. Nice waterfall but there are better on the loop.

    A Short History of Champasak
    Perfect for a short attention span, we stopped in to the museum after stumbling upon it on a walk back to our hotel from downtown. We’d gone by it a dozen times without seeing it!

    It was interesting to see local maps, some ancient drums and architecture features, old and in circulation Lao money, extinct fish species, cultural info on minority populations, and an extensive set of photos from the last 60+ years of Lao history (I’ve got some study to do to put it all in context) and The Who’s who of the area. The newest items seem to be from ten years or so ago.

    Well worth the visit.
