Things to do in Champasak

It is an old castle of Champasak city, very beautiful, but should have a car to travel because it is 40 kilometers from Pakse. The temple has not been restored much, but it is considered complete. But some places have piles of garbage, which makes it lose its beauty. It is recommended to go in the winter or rainy season because in the summer it is very hot. Walking up the narrow stairs, must be especially careful.

Wat Phu in Champasak is a trace of Indian Brahmanism in Laos. It was listed as a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site for its history in the 12th century and its exquisite architectural style similar to Angkor Wat. Unfortunately, only the ruins are left standing in the wilderness, silently telling of its former glory under the setting sun...

The view here is amazing, especially when the sun is setting!

The weather is cool and comfortable all year round and it is located very high above sea level, making it the largest coffee plantation in Laos.

Years ago, I was among the Youths Malaysian Volunteers for a volunteer mission at Laos. This is among the days that I had an opportunity to visit one of the temple nearby the mekong river. it was excellent experience that i wish i took a lot of picture to reminisce the memories.
