THE
WILDS OF
XE CHAMPHONE
Savannakhet Province plays its own siren song with ancient Buddhist libraries, remnants of French Colonial times, and a signiďŹ cant stupa holding relics of the Buddha. Sitting just to the east of Savannakhet town, Xe Champhone District has monkeys with attitude and skulking crocs. TEXT BY MELODY KEMP PHOTOGRAPHS BY MELODY KEMP AND JASON ROLAN
