空邦魯-Kompong Phhluk (1)









We took a six-hour bus ride from Phnom Penh to Siem Reap. After getting there at night, we were exhausted a lot because of the tough road condition and decided to rest one day before the start of exploring the ancient temples in Angkor Wat. On the next day, the guest house where we stayed arranged for us a group tour to Kompong Phhluk in a good deal.

Kompong Phhluk is a floating village on the Tonle Sap, the largest lake in Southeast Asia. It took one hour to get there from Siem Reap. Around 2000 families live in this fishing village, where they built their houses high with woods and palm leaves. The residents there make their living from fishing on the Tonle Sap. Life is very simple and basic.
