Ban Lung, "the Red City", is the provincial capital. It is the successor to Lomphat, located further south on the Sré Pok River. Lomphat, destroyed by American bombing in the 1970s, is now a large, sleepy village. During the dry season, a thick cloud of powdery laterite floats over Ban Lung. It's like being in a Western, in a town lost at the end of the world, with its dusty, right-angled streets and uniformly red facades. There's little to visit in Ban Lung, but the town is the starting point for exciting excursions in Ratanakiri.
