Before we visit Loas this morning, we had a wonderful breakfast at the resort.

TohSang KhongJiam Resort is a 5 star resort built by the side of Moon River in KhongJiam District, Ubon Ratchathani. The beauty of this resort is its natural environment by the river.

We arrived in the evening yesterday and did not had an opportunity to have a good look of this resort. We we wake up in the morning and having our breakfast in the open air restaurant next the Moon River… here is goes…

Not enough, go for 2nd round.

Getting ready to Pakse, Loas..

We part our car at the Thailand custom car park and boarded a bus to visit Pakse, a border town of Loas. Crossing the border is easy for Malaysian as we do not need any visa to enter Loas.

Pakse is a small town and not much development, the traffic in Loas is right hand drive, so it might post a problem if you were to drive in Loas.

Our 1st stop is a breath taking waterfall about 1000 deep into a valley. Before we reach the waterfall, there are a lots of stalls selling handicraft. The price there is super cheap where a hand made bamboo pillow cause only RM3.00.

This is the water fall with 1000 ft depth into a valley.

After visit the waterfall, we proceed to visit a local coffee farm to enjoy some Loas coffee, I am not coffee drinker, so cannot commend on it.

Lunch at a wonderful restaurant setup near a small but beautiful waterfall serving traditional Loas food.
