Wat Phu, Laos
Sacred Temple Complex of Khmer Kings
Nandin Hall in Wat Phu, Laos.
One of only two UNESCO World Heritage cultural sites in Laos, Wat Phu Monumental Complex has suffered from a lack of regular maintenance and is prone to damage and destabilization from fluvial processes. To counteract these issues, Global Heritage Fund is supporting emergency stabilization and a sustained conservation and training program to save the last remaining temples of Wat Phu in Champasak, particularly Nandin Hall, in partnership with The Lerici Institute, the Lao Ministry of Information and Culture, the Champasak Province Office and the University Polytechnic of Milan.
