The view you see here is Pak San, Borikhamxay Province, Laos. Pak San offers a slightly different feeling from other places because this spot has two-colored water, or the San River flowing into the Mekong River. When looking from the Thai side to the Lao side, you hardly see any large buildings. But when looking from Pak San back to Thailand, you can see two beautiful pointed Thai temples and tall telephone poles cutting the Thai skyline. The Mekong River here is very wide and even has a sandbar island in the middle of the water. This is the spot where I am sitting and enjoying the view.

This river bend is where the traditional Thai-Lao long boat races take place every year, a tradition passed down for generations. Both Thai and Lao people highly value this boat racing event. In September every year, the Mekong River reaches its highest and fastest flow. The boat race during this time crowns the best boat handler or the king of the Mekong River basin. I spoke with locals in Pak San, and they are also enthusiastic and excited about the boat races. Lao boats usually compete in the late afternoon when the weather is pleasant. Lao people come out to relax by the Mekong River.

Order som tam (papaya salad), grilled chicken, and Lao beer while relaxing and enjoying the view. With such a great atmosphere, beautiful scenery, and a cool breeze, you can see the Thai side and hear music from a Thai temple fair. I took the opportunity to sip Lao beer and chat about the Mekong River with Pak San locals, experiencing true independent travel. Recommended good hotels in Pak San town. Five-star sausages from the Thai side are sold at Pak San along the Mekong River bank. On the Mekong riverbank at Pak San, looking across is Bueng Kan Province. Try 'kai khao' or fertilized eggs, steamed and dipped in salt, enjoyed with Lao beer.
