We had a tour to Kompong Khleang today, and the high water made it a special one. With the lake this full we were able to see not only the flooded forest but also travel by boat right through the floating villages.
We set out on the community tourism boat, and from there we transitioned into a row boat with a lovely lady from Outaput village, who was so happy to host us.
Out among the floating houses, one of our videos caught a lovely moment: a dog swimming across the lake to his home. Life here really does happen on the water.
There is also a great view of the glimmering Buddha at Wat Khleang, standing tall above the water as the boats pull in below.
November is a wonderful time to see Kompong Khleang. If you would like to plan a day like this one, you can design your own private day or join our Kompong Khleang sunset group tour.
