Although counting only 25,000 inhabitants, Pakse is the
most important town of South Laos. Situated at the confluence
of the Xe Dong river and the Mekong, Pakse is an important traffic
junction. From Pakse routes lead to Vietnam and Cambodia.
The town features an important market for agricultural
products but lacks sightseeing attractions. But close by is an
extraordinary attraction: Wat Phou.
