📍Address - Thakhek, Khammouane Province, Lao PDR That Sikhottabong is located in Wat That Sikhottabong, on the Mekong River in Laos. It is a sacred pagoda where you can ask for anything you want, especially lost things. Most Lao people think that they will get them back, but love is an exception. It is said that Phraya Sikhottabong was disappointed in love and died because of this. In addition, there is a Buddha statue in the ordination hall for Buddhists and tourists to worship. Inside the ordination hall, there are period images that indicate the prosperity of the Lan Xang era, including the use of hands to rub the bell to make a loud sound throughout the chapel of Wat That Sikhottabong. In front of the door of Wat That Sikhottabong, there are Lao houses on stilts from different regions set up for tourists to visit and see the way of life of Lao people in different regions. How are the houses built? 💰To visit, there is a 5,000 kip fee per person. ✋Prohibitions: Women must wear a sarong to enter the temple. Pants are not allowed. #thakhek #khammouane #laos

#favouriteitinerary Embarking on the Thakhek Loop in Laos was an absolute blast! The scenery was just insane—massive limestone mountains, winding roads, and these wide-open valleys that made me feel so tiny. Every turn had a new view that made me want to stop and just take it all in. The caves along the way were epic. It was cool exploring them, stumbling over rocks, and feeling the chilly air inside. Definitely got my adrenaline pumping a few times! The ride itself was a mix of fun and challenging. The roads could get pretty rough, with potholes and sharp bends, but that just made the adventure more exciting. And the villages along the way were a nice break—the locals were so friendly, and I got to try some awesome street food. By the end of the loop, I was exhausted but seriously happy.
