Before heading on our trip back to Salavan, we stocked up on fruit at one of the many fruit stands by the turnoff to Route 13. The spiky fruit in the front is Durian - Asians love it but it smells so nasty that I can't even get close enough to eat to try it. The red/ greenish fruit next to it on the front row are Rambutans - they are delicious. The brownish fruit behind them are Longans. Behind them are green mangoes and the fruit in bags are Tamarind seed pods.

In the back, wrapped in Styrofoam are apples and Asian pear/ apples from China.
