Kompong Chhnang (Clay Pot Port) is a tale of two cities: the sleepy centre dating back to
the colonial area, arrayed around a huge park, and the bustling dockside on the Tonlé Sap
River. Nearby sights include two floating villages, a hamlet famous for its distinctive pot-
tery and drop-dead gorgeous countryside, typically Cambodian in its union of verdant rice
fields and towering sugar palms.
