4000 Islands
Si Phan Don (Four Thousand Islands) in southern Laos is Southeast Asia's most relaxed destination — hammock-strung bamboo bungalows on islands in the Mekong River, waterfall walks to the Khone Phapheng (the widest waterfalls in Asia), and the rare Irrawaddy river dolphin are all part of this extraordinary riverside paradise.
