The water from the Sedon River flows south to meet the Mekong, converging at a distinct point. Due to the difference in water composition, on sunny days it's striking to see where the milky caramel color of the Sedon joins the greyish-blue of the Mekong. With scenic views of the well-traversed waterways and lush foliage all around, the riverside restaurants along Road No.11 typify the heart and soul of southern Laos. Modest outdoor stalls with little more than plastic tables and chairs await customers. The idea is to do as the locals do--take pleasure in the leisurely pace of life, taste a variety of snacks ranging from spicy dips with sticky rice, crunchy rice cracker treats, to pho (noodle soup) or barbecued chicken, washed down with cold beer while watching the sunset on the horizon. With this in mind, time spent in the city of Pakse involve strolls through neighborhoods with colonial architecture, remnants from a period when the French used the city as an administrative center at the turn of the 20th century. Nowadays, new roads and bridges link the area with Thailand, Vietnam and Cambodia, making the provincial capital a hub of commerce.

As Mumbai is my native place, I had many opportunities to visit such cities quiet frequently during my various visits to India. I was able to visit city of Ahmednagar near the city of Poona during my last visit to India. I was amazed to visit the historical places of this city, as I was never aware that this medium size city is having so much of history stored in it. The city of Ahmednagar is situated at the distance of around 70 miles from Poona. State Transport buses or hired cars and taxis from Poona can easily take you to this city within around two hours time. The city of Ahmednagar is built in Maratha style design and was the big commercial center during the eighteenth century. King Ahmed Nizam Shah of Bahamani rulers have constructed the famous fort of Ahmednagar in the year 1540. The tourists visit this city to view this unique fort of Ahmednagar from all over the country, as its mixed architectural design of Hindu and Maratha rulers is simply outstanding. The fort is made in circular shape and there is a deep valley, full of water all around it so as to prevent the enemies to enter in the fort. The fort has eight tall Minars that are around 150 feet high. The soldiers were kept in all these Minars so as to keep a watch on any probable sudden attack of the enemy army. There is also a large palace inside the fort where the King of Ahmednagar was
