Kampong Cham offers a glimpse into Cambodia’s colonial history along the banks of the Mekong River. The city is home to the Koh Pen Bamboo Bridge, a seasonal structure rebuilt every year following the monsoon floods. Nearby, Wat Nokor Bachey showcases a unique architectural fusion where a modern pagoda sits within the walls of an 11th-century Angkorian temple. From the bustling stalls of Phsar Thom to the Kizuna Bridge—the first to span the Mekong in Cambodia—this collection highlights the region's historic landmarks and traditional riverside life.
