Stop At: Kampong Phluk Floating Village, Kampong Phluk, Siem Reap Cambodia

A rural village consisted of traditional stilted houses, Kampong Phluk is a unique place to experience the fishing culture around Tonle Sap lake. The name means "Harbor of the Tusks". The community largely depends on fishing for survival, spending Cambodia's wet season fishing. Some floating villages around Tonle Sap lake have become tourist scams and commercial traps (such as Chong Kneas), yet Kampong Phluk remained untouched and is highly recommended to people who loves culture and photography.

Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Tonle Sap Lake, Lower Mekong Basin Cambodia

Passing through a long river bed, we enter the Tonle Sap lake, a seasonally inundated lake that is connected to the Mekong River. As one of the world's most varied and productive ecosystems the region has always been of central importance for Cambodia's food supply. It proved capable of largely maintaining the Angkorean civilization, the largest pre-industrial settlement complex in world history. If you come in afternoon, you will be able to enjoy fantastic sunset view on the lake.

Duration: 1 hour
