Overview
The Mekong River flowing from the Tibetan Plateau through six countries to the South China Sea is one of Asia's great river journeys, and the slowboat from Huay Xai to Luang Prabang in Laos remains the most atmospheric section. The two-day wooden boat journey through jungle-clad limestone gorges stops at riverside villages where Buddhist monks collect alms at dawn. The Golden Triangle where Thailand, Myanmar, and Laos meet at the river's bend is historically resonant.
