The secret land of Laos, the slow life of escapism on the four thousand beautiful islands
[Four Thousand Islands] Located in Pakse, Laos, although there are countless small islands in the "Four Thousand Islands", only a few large islands are inhabited all year round. Don Det is a popular small island on Si Qian Mei Island. It is one of the islands together with Don Khong, the largest island in the north, and Don Khon, just across the bridge. The three islands most suitable for tourism.
Take a "yacht" in the river branch of "Four Thousand Beauty Islands" to shuttle among unknown islands. You can enjoy the scenery of palm trees and sparse houses on the Mekong River as the river breeze blows.

Transportation 🚌: My friend didn’t want to charter a car, so I ordered a combined transport from a street travel agency to experience Sleepingbus. The bus departed from Vang Vieng in the afternoon and went to Vientiane. The sleeping bus departed at 19:00 in the evening and arrived at a certain town at 6:00 the next morning. Then I transferred to a minibus and then to tutu. Anyway, I was dizzy after the sleeping bus and kept getting off and on the bus. Know how to get to the hotel.

Accommodation🏨: Pon Arena Hotel (located on Dongkong Island. At that time, the conditions were the best on Siqianmei Island, so I chose to stay there. Later, I found that except for us, the hotel was all elderly European and American people, and the young people had all gone to Dongde Island. But the hotel The best coconut fish I have ever eaten and the best mojito I have ever drunk)

Recreation: Eat and drink every day, pet the cat, and then take a boat to the other two islands to wander around, see waterfalls, watch the sunrise... Use the boss stereo to act as a DJ and sing country karaoke.

Tips📋：
1. Siqianmei Island is too far away and its accessibility is too low. Public transportation was too hard, and because I was pregnant that day, I was scared to think about taking it back for the next few days (I had booked a return Sleepingbus ticket at that time). In the end, because I was too afraid of this trip, I temporarily chartered a bus to Bangkok while waiting for the bus in town. Of course, it was another thrilling story.
2. But the scenery is really beautiful and it’s definitely a good place to relax.
3. Young people can live on Dongde Island regardless of accommodation conditions. It should be a lot more fun.
