Hey Guys,

This video is all about Pakse & Things to do in Pakse.
Pakse (Pakxe) is the capital city of Champasak province of Southern Laos, and the 2nd most populous in the country, serving as a major transport and commerce hub for southern Laos. If you plan to go to the Bolaven Plateau, Wat Phou, Si Phan Don (4,000 Islands), the Xe Pian National Protected Area, or Lao Ngam and Tadlo in neighbouring Salavan province. Pakse is an ideal base with its relaxing atmosphere on the Mekong and Sedona Rivers, friendly locals, ubiquitous riverside restaurants and bars, and numerous massage clinics.
How to Reach Pakse:-
By plane - Pakse has an International Airport with connecting flights to Bangkok, Vientiane, Siem Reap & Ho Chi Minh City.
By bus - Direct Buses to
Siem Reap, Vientiane, 4000 Islands, Thailand - Ubon
Things to do in Pakse, South Laos;-
Pakse is a good base for travel to the Bolaven Plateau where coffee fields and waterfalls galore await, the idyllic river islands of Si Phan Don, also known as 4,000 Islands, eco-tours, trekking and village stays in Sepian National Protected Area, the Angkor temple complex Wat Phou, and to the indigenous villages and waterfalls of the Tad Lo area of Lao Ngam district, Salavan province. Pakse itself makes for a great staging point for archaeological tourists in this part of Laos for two reasons: 1) it is where the Champasak Provincial Museum is located as an introduction to local archaeology, and 2) it is an alternative to Champasak city as a staging point for those wanting to see Wat Phou.Wat Phou is a designated UNESCO site and boasts of as Laos’s counterpart to Angkor Wat/Angkor Thom: its the finest of its type outside Cambodia.
Bolaven Plateau - rent a motorbike. All roads are in good condition by Laos standards, no need for an off-road or performance bike, a Honda Wave is easily enough even with a passenger. All places that offer motorcycle rental will provide maps. Average time to complete the loop is 2-3 days, but it could be done in one if you don't plan to visit the natural wonders along the way.
Tadlo - A village in Lao Ngam district, Salavan province. Mainly comprised of guests houses catering to those doing the Bolaven Plateau loop. Laid back place with quite a number of 'traditional' backpackers who went for a night and never left. Several good waterfalls in the area and some trekking opportunities.
Si Phan Don - Also known as 4,000 islands, is less than 3 hours away. Relax here for a few days by the Mekong river.

10 Best Experiences in Laos according to Rough Guides
10 Best Experiences in Laos according to Rough Guides
10. Vieng Xai
Vieng Xai is a district and town in Hua Phan Province. The biggest attraction of the town is the caves. The former Pathet Lao Revolutionary headquarters of Vieng Xai sit in a striking valley of fertile hills and limestone cliffs riddled with caves, several of which were used to shelter PL officers during the second Indochina War.
9. Nam Ou
The Nam Ou is one of the most important rivers of Laos. It runs 448 km from Phongsaly Province to Luang Prabang Province. Along with the Mekong, the Nam Ou is the only natural channel suitable for large-draft boat transportation. Near its confluence with the Mekong are the Pak Ou Caves, famous for their Buddha statues.
8. Trekking
Rugged mountain forests set the scene for hikers seeking to explore the remote hill villages of the north.
7. Vang Vieng
Once little more than a bus stop on the long haul between Vientiane at the Thai border and the World Heritage Site of Luang Prabang, Vang Vieng has managed to become a destination in its own right and a popular stop on the unofficial Banana Pancake Trail. Still not much more than three streets and a bus station, the main attractions are the river, laid back countryside, and cave-filled rock formations.
6. Lao food
Lao cuisine is the cuisine of Laos, which is distinct from other Southeast Asian cuisines. The staple food of the Lao is steamed sticky rice, which is eaten by hand. In fact, the Lao eat more sticky rice than any other people in the world. Galangal, lemongrass and padaek (Lao fish sauce) are important ingredients.
5. Luang Prabang
Set at the confluence of two rivers that almost surround the town, and beneath a temple-topped hill, Luang Prabang is a wonderful patchwork of traditional Lao wooden houses and hints of European architecture, reminders of when Laos was part of the French colony of Indochine.
4. Waterfalls of the Bolaven Plateau
The Bolaven Plateau is an elevated region in southern Laos. The plateau is crossed by several rivers and has many scenic waterfalls. The name Bolaven makes reference to the Laven ethnic group which has historically dominated the region. The most popular places visited by tourists are the waterfalls in the region, the villages of the ethnic minorities, and other geopolitical areas of interest.
3. Plain of Jars
The Plain of Jars is a megalithic archaeological landscape in Laos. These stone jars appear in clusters, ranging from a single or a few to several hundred jars at lower foothills surrounding the central plain and upland valleys. The Plain of Jars is dated to the Iron Age (500 BC to AD 500) and is one of the most important sites for studying Southeast Asian prehistory.
2. Phongsali
It is the northernmost among provincial capitals in Laos opposite Attapeu in the south. In the centre of the town are houses built in Yunnanese style with ornate wooden fronts. A 400-year-old tea plantation is located about 18 kilometers away in the village of Ban Koma, which according to some tea experts has some of the oldest tea trees in the world.
1. A slow boat down the Mekong
The lifeline of this landlocked nation, the Mekong figures in every visit to Laos, supplying the fish for dinner, a stunning array of sunsets and a route to travel along.
