Kampong Khleang

Cambodia

Visit the Tonle Sap Lake village of Kampong Khleang. It is located on the northern lake-edge about 35 km east of Siem Reap, more remote and less visited than Kampong Phluk and the more well known Chong Kneas. During the dry/low water season (Jan-June) stilted houses rise up to 30 feet in the air, known as “Bamboo Skyscrapers”. In the wet/high water season (July-Dec) the waters rise to within three feet of the buildings.

Background

Like Kampong Phluk, Kampong Khleang is a permanent community within the floodplain of the Lake, with an economy based in fishing and surrounded by flooded forest. However Kampong Khleang is significantly larger with near 10 times the population of Kampong Phluk, making it one of the largest communities on the Lake.
