Land Of Million Elephants

Though troubled Laos is known as the "Land of a Million Elephants," the animals are seldom seen in the royal capital of Luang Prabang. Palace elephants roam at will in near-by forests, and are brought into town only for New Year's ceremonies and special festivals, the National Geographic Magazine says.
