湄公河流域
從泰老邊境金三角順流而下,經琅勃拉邦、永珍、四千美島、柬埔寨到越南三角洲的東南亞母親河流域。
湄公河發源於青藏高原(中國境內稱瀾滄江),流經緬甸、寮國、泰國、柬埔寨後在越南入海;旅遊上的「湄公河流域」通常指中國境外的中下游,是東南亞最經典的跨國慢旅行區域。主要段落有:泰國清萊的金三角與會曬—琅勃拉邦兩天慢船;世界遺產古城琅勃拉邦的佈施與寺廟;寮國首都永珍的塔鑾與湄公河夜市;南寮國巴色附近的瓦普神廟與四千美島,孔埠瀑布是東南亞流量最大的瀑布;柬埔寨桔井可看瀕危伊洛瓦底江豚,金邊位於湄公河與洞裡薩河交匯處;越南芹苴一帶則是三角洲的水上市場與果園。完整走一遍需 3-4 周,常見是分段:泰北—琅勃拉邦慢船 3-4 天、南寮國—柬埔寨 5-7 天、越南三角洲 2-3 天。交通以長途巴士、慢船和中老鐵路為主,陸路口岸多可辦落地籤或電子籤,需提前核實。雨季部分支線道路難行,慢船旱季也可能因低水位改道。
