Koh Dach Essentials

Koh Dach, situated on the Mekong River just upstream from Phnom Penh, serves as a primary center for traditional Cambodian silk weaving. This rural island features several Buddhist pagodas, including Ampor Pal and Utumpho, characterized by ornate Khmer architecture and colorful murals. Visitors can observe the entire silk production process, from silkworm rearing to hand-loomed weaving in village workshops. The island's northern tip offers seasonal sandy beaches and floating restaurants serving local Khmer dishes over the water.
