Itinerary description
Along the Mekong on the west side. Two hidden temples along the way and a nice bridge. The Chan Nua village is worth the trip too.
Waypoints
Ferry
Religious site

Abandoned temple
There are two large Stella's on the site with Japanese inscriptions. I assume there are WWII memorial monuments for Japanese soldiers

Nothing to see here. The way a worker up there who thwarted my exploration attempt.

Chan Nua
Cute village with a port and nice temple. This is the place to go to see for chickens and roosters, the place is filled with them. Pottery stores too, but I didn't stop there.

Another abandoned temple
Even more abandoned than the first one. A strange place with a lonely Buddha in a decrepit building.

An old vacation resort
A large vacation resort that has been closed for a long time. Somebody must still be living there since there is a vegetable garden.
