Champasak is a province of Southern Laos.
It's best known for a series of Khmer ruins, collectively named a UNESCO World Heritage Site as the Champasak Cultural Landscape.
Pakse is the transport hub of the region, with an airport, bus service and limited boat access off the Mekong. For Champasak and the South, there are more expensive minivans from a couple of travel companies in Pakse town centre.
Most places in Champasak, including Wat Phou, can be visited as day trips from Pakse.
