Situated on the banks of the mighty Mekong River, Kampong Cham is an excellent starting destination for your next Asia river cruise. Best known for its colorful French colonial architecture, religious sites, and close proximity to Koh Pen and Phnom Penh. Kampong Cham is filled with a unique and authentic atmosphere not found elsewhere in Cambodia. You can expect a city with less traffic and crowds, as Kampong Chen is a relatively lesser-traveled destination. Plus, being a much smaller city, you can easily get around on foot, as most of the restaurants and main sights are located so close to each other. What you can discover in this quaint city includes markets, riverfront beauty, bamboo bridges, and more! It’s a great way to have an unforgettable cultural experience when visiting Cambodia.

Kizuna Bridge is a true engineering feat, as it was Cambodia’s first bridge built over the Mekong River in 2001. Today, it serves as an incredible place to watch the sun rise and set over the river.
