Introduction

Tonle Sap Lake, located in Southeast Asia, is the largest freshwater lake in the region. It is connected to the Mekong River and has many towns along its shores, including Siem Reap. The sunset views at Tonle Sap Lake are breathtaking and definitely worth seeing. Additionally, you can visit several floating villages, with Chong Khneas and Kampong Phluk being the most famous ones. It is recommended to visit Chong Khneas as Kampong Phluk has become a more commercialized tourist spot, with ticket fees benefiting private companies. Chong Khneas is further away from Siem Reap and has fewer tourists, making it a suitable choice for eco-tourism. Your ticket fees also contribute to the income of the entire village, providing support to the local residents.
