Tonle Sap Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
Located in the heart of Cambodia, the Tonle Sap River meets the Mekong River and is the passage between the Tonle Sap Lake and the Mekong River. At the same time, it is also the fourth largest source of freshwater fish in the world. There are more than 150 kinds of fish in the river, and the freshwater resources are very rich. The main reason for the abundance of freshwater resources is due to the unique phenomenon that the Tonle Sap River can "reverse the flow". In the rainy season from June to September every year, due to the melting of snow in the Himalayas, the water level of the Mekong River suddenly increases, causing water to flow into the Tonle Sap River from the Mekong River, reversing the flow of the Tonle Sap River; from October to May the following year , the river flows back to the Mekong River. Around the Tonle Sap River, there are famous scenic spots such as the Royal Palace of Phnom Penh and the National Museum. The scenery is beautiful, and it is very pleasant to walk or rest by the river. There are also various cafes, restaurants and bars on the banks of the river and north of the Royal Palace, where you can immerse yourself in a romantic colonial-style restaurant and enjoy a delicious Western-style meal. An exotic place to go.

Visited in April-23, git tickets and a boat. I suggest that a small boat is rented to allow it to navigate the shallow waters. It's a good opportunity to go and wander around the house on high stilts. The floating restaurants moved further into the lake. We mistakenly got a huge boat.It got stuck but a group of fisherfolks took us back to where we parked our car. Thumbs up to them.
The Donglisa River is a Phnom Penh mother river, a long river, where many locals live, some houses are also near the river, and there are many fish in the river, which can be seen in the market here.
Tonle Sap is a large freshwater lake in Cambodia, known for its diverse wildlife and floating villages.
