Photograph by David Coleman. In Vientiane, the capital city of Laos, the walkway along the Mekong River provides a picturesque setting for observing the transition from day to evening. As the golden setting sun casts a warm glow across the hazy late afternoon sky, people can be seen silhouetted against this beautiful backdrop, creating a serene and tranquil scene that captures the essence of Vientiane’s riverside charm. The Mekong River, one of the major rivers in Southeast Asia, flows gently beside the city, offering a peaceful retreat from the urban hustle. The walkway is a popular spot for locals and tourists alike, who come to enjoy the scenic views, take leisurely strolls, and experience the calming atmosphere as the sun sets.
