EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enchanting ruins of Wat Phou, a former Khmer Hindu temple complex in Champasak province, Laos. Nestled at the base of Mount Phu Kao and situated just 6 km away from the majestic Mekong River, this ancient site is steeped in history and architectural grandeur. The image showcases the intricate details of this once magnificent temple building, adorned with ornate sculptures and relief carvings that speak volumes about an ancient civilization. The lush tropical climate surrounds the ruins, as trees and foliage intertwine with remnants of a glorious past. Underneath a clear blue sky bathed in sunlight, tranquility permeates every corner of this landscape. With no people present to disturb its serenity, one can truly appreciate the magnificence and significance of Wat Phou. As a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2001, Wat Phou stands as a testament to Laos' rich cultural heritage. This photograph by Paul Biris beautifully captures not only its physical beauty but also evokes a sense of wonder for those who gaze upon it. It serves as a reminder that even amidst nature's reclamation and the passage of time, these remnants continue to inspire awe and reverence for both history enthusiasts and travelers seeking unique destinations.
