Review & FAQ:
Located in southern Laos, at the point of convergence of the Mekong and Xe Don rivers, the city of Pakse is the capital of the Champasak province and contains lots of beautiful French colonial architecture. Visitors to Pakse can visit several lavish Buddhist temples and explore the history of the region at the Champasak Historical Heritage Museum, where they will find examples of jewelry, musical instruments, clothing, and other pieces of Laotian cultural history. Mount Phou Asa, which rises near the city, provides beautiful sights of the surrounding valleys and is accessible by way of an elephant ride.
