Last December, we spent a month in Khon Kaen and got bored. We decided to find a new place to visit.

This was our first trip to Loei Province. Our goal was to experience the cool weather in Chiang Khan (it was actually cold when we arrived).

We started our journey early in the morning at the old bus terminal in Khon Kaen. The market was bustling with vendors selling their wares.

Fresh fruits and vegetables are displayed in the early morning market, with people constantly coming and going to purchase ingredients for their meals.

We departed from Khon Kaen at approximately 7:00 AM via a public bus traveling from Khon Kaen to Loei City.

The fare was approximately 125 baht.

Along the way, there were many vendors selling food. We bought one sticky rice in bamboo for breakfast and kept another one for later.

It was a good way to keep us going.

We arrived at Loei Bus Terminal around 11:00 AM. We asked for directions to the songthaew stand that goes to Chiang Khan. The songthaews pick up and drop off passengers at the parking lot in the area.

Is there anything else I can help you with?

After a short ride, the songthaew dropped us off at a 7-Eleven near Chiang Khan Road, our destination.

We set off towards the walking street to find a place to rest our heads for the night.

The majority of houses in this area are wooden structures that have preserved the architectural style of traditional houses remarkably well.

We walked around looking for accommodation. Some places were full, and some were over our budget. We walked for a while and found this place. It was 500 baht for a single room. The owner of the house was a lovely aunt who gave us good advice.

This wooden house has individual rooms. We stayed in a room next to a Japanese tourist who checked in on the same day as us.

At night, I usually turn on the TV when I sleep alone. I guess the sound must have reached her room, and she banged on the wall, as if to say, "Hey, turn it off." So, I turned it off.

But! The next morning, before we checked out, something happened that I had never experienced before. I heard a woman's voice coming from her room, even though she was alone. The sound was... well, you know, Japanese and adult movies. I understand, but it was still early in the morning! She was playing it loud, and when I opened the door, I saw her coming out at the same time. Oh, I was scared... At that moment, I thought, "Why do I have to experience this?" with the atmosphere that was just getting good.

Anyway, let's move on from that incident and continue to enjoy the atmosphere.

After packing our belongings, we embarked on an exploration of the local way of life along the walking street. We captured an image of a cat dozing peacefully in front of a house.

Sitting by the Mekong River, watching the sunset. The cool evening air is perfect for relaxation.

The people here live a simple life, in harmony with nature. We sat and watched a large flock of birds flying back to their nests, feeling completely at peace. There were no worries in our minds, and it was a truly wonderful feeling.

Is the puppy dozing off too?

As evening approaches, vendors begin to open their shops.
