Vat Phou - Mekong, Southern Lao
Treasures
 (Français)
Not far from the shores of the Mekong River in Southern Laos lie
two of the regions most remarkable treasures, the mythical World Heritage site
of Vat Phou and the Oun Moung Temple. The awe-inspiring pre-Angkorian Vat Phou
dates back over a thousand years and is widely regarded as one of the most
outstanding examples of Khemer architecture, while the Oun Moung exudes an
atmosphere of a city lost in the jungle for centuries.
Embracing the beauty and power of the Mekong and the exotic mystique of ancient
Khemer ruins, this 3-day Asian Oasis Mythical Journey combines
the highlights of the region for an unforgettable experience.
A boutique river-borne hotel is the setting for this journey through the
timeless landscapes of Southern Laos. Here, the serenity of this vast and
smooth expanse of water is accentuated by the stunning Si Phan Don the "4,000
Islands" and further down, Southeast Asia's largest waterfalls at
Pha Pheng.
The leisurely cruise along the fascinating Mekong is as relaxing as it is
historic and gives extraordinary insight into the ancient civilization that
once shared your path down this mighty waterway.
