Kompong Cham / bâteaux vers PP et KratiePosté par whynot le 4 septembre 2009 à 08:59Kompong Cham Cambodia61 rate or flag this pageBy leigh_anne KOMPONG CHAM Although it doesn't feel like it, Kompong Cham is Cambodia's third largest city and the first major stop for travelers heading up the Mekong. With the opening of the Lao border north of Stung Treng and the recent completion of a gargantuan bridge across the Mekong, Kompong Cham has also become a transit point to the north and east of the country. Despite the fact that there is not much to see or do in the city, Kompong Cham is a pleasant provincial city, and there are certainly worse places to be stuck for one night. TRANSPORTATION The road from Phnom Penh to Kompong Cham is in excellent condition. Buses leave Kompong Cham from behind the market on the same street as the Canadia Bank for Phnom Penh (3hr., 8 per day 7:30am-4pm). The road to Kratie is horrible and there is no need to take it, since boats run to Kratie year-round. But if you're so inclined, pickups leave for Kratie from the market. Traveling north by boat is preferable. Boats go to Kratie (fast boat 3hr.; 7:30, 9am, 2pm; slow boat 5hr.; 6:30, 10am) and Phnom Penh (fast boat 3hr.; 9:30am). ORIENTATION AND PRACTICAL INFORMATION Kompong Cham sits on the west bank of the Mekong River, 120km northeast of Phnom Penh. Fast boats from Phnom Penh and Kratie dock opposite the Mekong Hotel, on Preah Bat Sihanouk, the riverside road |
