Kampong Cham is where most travellers change buses rather than stop. Cheung Kok is a reason to stop: a village that has organised itself around its crafts and welcomes overnight guests.
What a stay looks like
Afternoon at the looms, dinner with a family, and a morning ride to the Mekong riverfront.
Good to know
Pair it with Kampong Cham’s bamboo bridge season and the Wat Nokor temple.
Questions travellers ask
Can I buy the weaving?
Yes - buying from the village is part of how the project supports families.
How does it fit a route?
Between Phnom Penh and Kratie, or as a break on the way to Mondulkiri.
