Uo Moung (Tomo Temple)
ອຸໂມງ
A small Khmer temple in the forest on the east bank of the Mekong, with stone figures and lintels scattered in the shade and a quiet atmosphere.
Built around the 9th to 10th centuries, this temple lies in the forest across the Mekong. Broken walls, doorframes, and lingas are scattered among moss and tree roots, making it feel like a small Ta Prohm. Few tourists come here. Reach it by ferry from the Champasak side and then cycle, or head south from Pakse on Route 13 and take a side road. There is a small entrance fee, and the rainy season makes the roads muddy.
Opening hours
About 08:00–16:30
