Champasak in Laos

Champasak Tour

Champasak is a quaint and unique riverside province in southern Laos. This heritage town was a seat of royalty until recent times, and played witness to many historic battles. The town has been influenced by a variety of cultural and ethnic influences, and several stellar examples of French colonial architecture line the town’s charming streets. Champasak remains an eclectic mix of the old world and the modern, as cars and motorbikes bikes jostle with bullock-drawn carts on its crowded roads. Champasak’s chief attraction is the crumbling Khmer ruins of Wat Phu, a UNESCO World Heritage site.
