Kampong Phluk
Tonle Sap, Prasat Bakong district, Cambodia
Kampong Phluk’s tall wooden houses reveal how village life adapts to Tonle Sap’s changing water levels. During the wetter months, boats travel through waterways beside the houses and into flooded forest; the dry-season landscape looks very different. Choose a locally run visit and confirm what the fare includes before setting out. Treat the village as a living community, ask before photographing residents and check current water conditions when deciding how to plan the trip.
