ROAD THROUGH CAMBODIAN FOREST 
In the distance are the smooth, bare trunks of the flamboyant tree, or "flame of the 
forest." Other trees of this region are the teak, dipterocarpus, kapok, sao, tamarind, etc. 
The bullock cart in the foreground is the kind in common use. In the trees alongside every 
road are hundreds of monkeys. These animals are never harassed by the Cambodians, who 
have an almost religious respect for them. The monkeys pay no attention to passersby.
