Bokor Mountain - Although it can
be seen in one day it would be better to see this in a combination with
a visit to Kampot City. Borkor is an abandoned French hill station which
at its peak in 1920 with gambling, hotel and even a church. A great view
of the south coast can been seen from here.
Fishing Port & Village - Known as
Kampong Pier Nup Lok, it is 2 km north of the main shipping port on Hun
Sen Beach Drive. Take your camera as it is a array of activity and
colors.

Golden Lions Statue - The most
prominent land mark in town. It is in the middle of the traffic circle
between Ochheuteal and Sokha Beaches. Built in 1996.
Independence Square - Built in
1985 to honor the war dead and the independence of Cambodia. Consists of
a monument and an open meeting hall. |
Koh Kong Island - Worth a look
with its fishing village, casino, waterfront and nightlife. Ferries
daily. From what we hear this island has future possibilities.
Port Of Sihanoukville - Built from
1955 to 1960. 11 to 13 meters deep in most areas. The old pier reaches
out 290 meters while the northern one 350 meters and over 3000 meters of
break water.
Preah Sihanoukville Ream National Park
- Now open but facilities are not yet developed in full. Might be better
to arrange a guided tour with either the Ministry of Environment Tel#
23-218370 in Phnom Penh or the park office in Ream. It is 18 km north of
Sihanoukville. 500 meters off of Rt 4 on Airport Road. Across from the
Sihanoukville airport entrance. Contains 21,000 hectares of coastal
area. Sandy beaches, 2 islands, off shore coral reefs, mangrove forests,
assorted water and jungle birds. Animals including rhesus monkeys and
fresh water dolphins can all be seen.
Sihanoukville Mountain - A amazing
view from this 132 meter high peak. About 2 1/2 km north on Route 4 till
you come to the brewery which you will then take a right turn on the
road which goes up the hill. 200 meters past Wat Leu to the rocks. Best
place to view the sunset.
St. Michael's Church - Built in
1960 and used until 1975. Then it was a prison until 1979 when it was
used for storage. It has now been reopened since 1993.
Victory Monument - To symbolize
the friendship between Cambodia and Viet Nam it was built in 1985.
Wat Chotynieng - Also known as Wat
Lou it is located on Sihanoukville Mountain and overlooks the town. The
life of Buddha is depicted on the interior panels. Portraits of the
founder Prince Junot is located in the rear and in front is a statue of
Ok Om the Buddhist Built in 1996 leader of this area.
Water Falls of Kbai Chhay - Most
would say it is better than the others falls in Kampot. It is a series
of falls each being 1 to 8 meters high. Best during the wet season and
packed on the weekends with picnickers. Drive on Hun Sen Beach Drive
north from town until you are 2 km past the Caltex Oil Depot. Then turn
right on a dirt road for about 3 1/2 km. Might be better to be on
motorbikes or a four wheel drive.
