Si Phan Don
The Si Phan Don is a region of Champasak Province in southern Laos. The Mekong river flows through the province and, just above the Cambodian border, is broken by the Khone Falls, a large number of rapids which make this section impassable to river traffic. During French colonial times a narrow-gauge railway was completed in 1924 for transportation across the rapids. It was primarily used to transport gold from Laos to France.
