Tha Khaek is in Central Laos. Tha Khaek is a pretty town that has managed to retain its unique feel and identity, making it a great place to visit to discover more about the traditional Lao spirit and way of life. This isn't the place to visit if you're looking for bright neon lights and dancing until dawn, but Tha Khaek has a gentle charm that can be quite addictive.
