柯克哥:“The Four Thousand Islands in Pakse Province is also a famous tourist resort in Laos. There are three large islands inhabited by residents, which can provide tourists with various basic services such as food, accommodation, transportation and entertainment. The conditions and facilities are very simple, and the price is naturally very cheap, so it is deeply loved by European and American backpackers. The current season is cool and dry, which is most suitable for tourism. Of course, this coolness refers to the local temperature throughout the year. The Mekong River is also in the dry season. Nearly a thousand small islands, reefs, and sandbanks in the river are exposed to the water. They are of various shapes and beautiful environments. It is very suitable for boat sightseeing and island tours. If you don’t want to move, you can sit by the river for a day to enjoy the breeze and drink tea.”

About 150 kilometers from Pakse city.
It is one of the most famous and beautiful tourist attractions in Laos.
In addition,
Khon Phapheng Waterfall is also home to many rare aquatic animals, such as the Khone Phapheng fish, which is a local fish found only in this area. It is also home to the finless dolphin or "Pla Kha" in Lao, one of the few dolphins that can live in freshwater in the world. It is also the birthplace of the Mekong catfish, which is the largest freshwater catfish in the world.”

At dinner time, the afterglow of the sunset in the distance reminded me of the dinner in Kruger National Park in South Africa in 2015. The atmosphere was better then, and it was also by the river, and it was also a semi-outdoor restaurant, but there were candles, wine, and more diners. During the two days on Four Thousand Islands, the restaurant basically had more staff than guests (usually no more than 4 staff), and more restaurants were closed. It seems that the epidemic is still having a big impact on Laos tourism (the rainy season is also a reason. I was the only guest in the hotel where I stayed on Four Thousand Islands), and there is no train here, far away from the capital Vientiane and Luang Prabang further north.”
