Explore one of the fascinating villages with a day-long kayaking trip. Though just 15 kilometres from Siem Reap town, Cambodia's unique
Tonle Sap
Lake is home to a particularly exceptional eco-system and culture with various floating villages, nature tours, boating excursions and more.
Kampong Kleang Village has adapted to the rise and fall of the lake by building houses on 8-metre-high stilts. During the dry season these dwellings become towering unearthly platforms high above the dusty street, while during the green season the water can reach the wooden floors. You can see the village's unique way of life and experience the equally unique natural habitat created by the semi-submerged trees.
