Thakhek Dream World City was a proposed new urban area and theme park in the Thakhek Specific Economic Zone in Khammouane Province, Laos.
The Thakhek Dream World City site is located near the Third Thai–Lao Friendship Bridge, opposite Nakhon Phanom in Thailand on the other side of the Mekong River.
The proposal included a residential, institutional, and commercial area, and a theme park. The project planned for a 65-floor signature tower, a 40-floor five-star hotel, and a 35-floor four-star hotel.
The project was announced in 2015, but there have been no updates since 2017.
