Living in Laos | How People Live in the Land of a Million Elephants | 4K

Living in Laos | How People Live in the Land of a Million Elephants | 4K A landlocked country in Southeast Asia that once called itself the Kingdom of a Million Elephants — where only a few hundred remain — and, beneath its calm green hills, the most heavily bombed nation per person in the history of warfare. At first light on the Nam Tien reservoir near Sayaboury, a mahout wades chest-deep beside his elephant, scrubbing the animal's shoulder with a fistful of tamarind bark until the grey skin darkens under the water. In Luang Prabang, around six in the morning, during tak bat, a woman kneels on a bamboo mat and presses a small handful of warm sticky rice into each bowl held out by a passing line of barefoot monks.
