Located some 65 kilometres south of Savannakhet, 15 kilometres west of National Highway 6 on the banks of the Mekong River, Heuan Hin (‘Stone House’) is believed to have been one of 121 rest houses (dharmasala) constructed by Jayavarman VII (1181-1218) along the roads which once criss-crossed the Khmer empire. The structure is in poor condition and most of the original carvings have been lost.
