(Translated by Google) 📿 THE MENCHMARK SECT – A SIMPLE BUT PROFOUND WAY OF PRACTICE No big bells or gongs. No bright yellow brocade robes. No flashy lecture halls or crowded festivals. Just a bowl, a set of yellow robes, and bare feet. That is the familiar image of the monks and nuns of the Mendicant Sect – those who choose the path of “transmitting the Buddha’s Dharma”, living according to the virtues of Alms-Begging – Three Robes – One Meal – Meditation. Founded by Patriarch Minh Dang Quang in the 1940s, the Mendicant Sect is a harmonious combination of Southern and Northern Buddhism, but the core is still living according to the Dharma, practicing right in the middle of life. > “Begging is asking for the Dharma, Si is the one who practices.” Not asking for food, but asking for the opportunity to practice – in the midst of a world full of temptations. --- 🌿 Monks and nuns do not preach at a high level. They go barefoot, not to show humility – but to remind themselves to always be close to the suffering of sentient beings. One meal a day – not to suffer, but to maintain mindfulness in every bite. Three robes – not to be different from others, but to remind themselves: the fewer needs, the more freedom. --- Today, in the era of speed and glamor, people still come to Tinh Xa, not out of curiosity – but because there, they find people who truly practice, live truly, and love truly. > “Practice is not to become a Buddha. Practice is to be a human being – completely and mindfully.” --- (Original) 📿 HỆ PHÁI KHẤT SĨ – MỘT LỐI TU MỘC MẠC MÀ SÂU XA Không chuông to mõ lớn. Không áo gấm vàng rực. Không những giảng đường hào nhoáng hay lễ hội đông người. Chỉ là một chiếc bát, một bộ y vàng đất, và đôi chân trần. Đó là hình ảnh quen thuộc của Tăng Ni Hệ phái Khất Sĩ – những người chọn con đường “nối truyền Thích Ca Chánh Pháp”, sống đúng theo hạnh Khất thực – Tam y – Một bữa – Thiền định. Được khai sáng bởi Tổ sư Minh Đăng Quang vào thập niên 1940, Hệ phái Khất Sĩ là sự kết hợp hài hòa giữa Phật giáo Nam tông và Bắc tông, nhưng cốt lõi vẫn là sống đúng với đạo, tu ngay giữa đời. > “Khất là xin pháp, Sĩ là người tu.” Không phải xin cơm, mà là xin cơ hội được tu – giữa lòng đời nhiều cám dỗ. --- 🌿 Tăng Ni không giảng cao siêu. Họ đi chân đất, không để chứng tỏ khiêm hạ – mà để nhắc mình luôn gần với khổ đau của chúng sanh. Một ngày một bữa – không phải để khổ, mà để giữ chánh niệm trong từng miếng ăn. Tam y – không để khác người, mà để nhắc lòng: càng ít nhu cầu, càng nhiều tự do. --- Ngày nay, giữa thời đại của tốc độ và hào nhoáng, người ta vẫn tìm về Tịnh xá, không phải vì tò mò – mà vì ở đó, họ tìm thấy những con người tu thật, sống thật, và thương thật. > “Tu không phải để thành Phật. Tu là để làm người – một cách trọn vẹn và tỉnh thức.” ---

(Translated by Google) In the heart of peaceful Chau Doc, there is a solemn and simple Tam Bao temple, nestled quietly in a familiar street corner. This is the place I have been attached to since childhood, when Tinh Xa still retained its rustic appearance with a small, clear pond and a cement bridge across, leading each step into the main hall. That image is like a lotus rising from the water, both graceful and peaceful, leaving me with many unforgettable memories. Over time, Tinh Xa has become more spacious and spacious, but still retains its inherent solemnity and tranquility. The walkways, the main hall, each row of trees, each statue exudes the beauty of serenity. This place is not only a spiritual place for Buddhists from near and far to come to worship, but also a spiritual home for many generations, sowing in people's hearts the seeds of goodness and steadfast faith. Every time I return, I feel light-hearted, as if I have returned to my childhood with the sound of temple bells ringing, the scent of incense mixed with the wind, and the peace spreading throughout the space. That simple Tam Bao is always a sacred support, supporting and illuminating the path of life of every Buddhist. (Original) Giữa lòng Châu Đốc yên bình có một ngôi Tam Bảo trang nghiêm, giản dị, nép mình lặng lẽ nơi góc phố thân quen. Đây là nơi tôi đã gắn bó từ thuở bé thơ, khi mà Tịnh Xá còn giữ nguyên vẻ mộc mạc với chiếc ao nhỏ trong xanh và cây cầu xi măng bắc ngang, dẫn lối từng bước chân vào chánh điện. Hình ảnh ấy giống như một đóa sen vươn lên giữa mặt nước, vừa thanh thoát vừa bình an, để lại trong tôi bao ký ức khó quên. Theo thời gian, ngôi Tịnh Xá nay đã khang trang, rộng rãi hơn, nhưng vẫn giữ được sự trang nghiêm và tĩnh lặng vốn có. Lối đi, chánh điện, từng hàng cây, từng pho tượng đều toát lên vẻ đẹp của sự an nhiên. Nơi đây không chỉ là chốn tâm linh để Phật tử gần xa tìm về chiêm bái, mà còn là mái nhà tinh thần cho biết bao thế hệ, gieo vào lòng người hạt giống thiện lành và niềm tin vững chắc. Mỗi lần trở lại, tôi lại thấy lòng nhẹ nhàng như được trở về tuổi thơ với tiếng chuông chùa ngân vang, hương trầm quyện gió, và sự bình yên lan tỏa khắp không gian. Ngôi Tam Bảo giản dị ấy vẫn luôn là điểm tựa thiêng liêng, nâng đỡ và soi sáng bước đường đời của mỗi người con Phật.

Tay An Buddhist Temple

Mentioned on

Buddhist temple
Sights & Landmarks
Tay An Buddhist Temple, located in the Sam Mountain complex, is a 19th-century pagoda that showcases a blend of Vietnamese and Indian architectural styles. The temple's facade features three round onion-shaped roofs adorned with vibrant colors, creating a harmonious and visually striking appearance. With an area of 15,000 square meters, the temple is home to over 200 statues, predominantly crafted from wood with intricate designs that reflect both cultural and artistic values from the early 19th century.
I don't understand all that is happening here but it seems to be a vietnamese pilgrimage. It's a 5 hour drive from HCM. We drive through the night and arrive well before the sun is up. I think it's to beat the crowds. The local Buddhist people go to pray. Only takes a few minutes. Then have a feed and back in the car for the drive home.

Xian Temple, also known as Xian Chua Temple, is a Buddhist temple located at the junction, at the foot of Sam Mountain (now belonging to Nui Sam Ward, Chau Doc City, An Giang Province). This temple was classified by the Ministry of Culture as a "national art and architecture monument" according to Decision No. 92 / VH.QD dated July 10, 1980; and officially recognized by Vietnam Record Book Center as "the temple with the architecture combining Indian art style and the first ancient architecture in Vietnam". Tay An Pagoda is located on a high, airy ground, in an area of ​​15,000 m2. Behind, there is Sam Mountain as the screen breaks out with a dark green color. The most impressive point of the pagoda is the main face with three ancient houses, which are round bulbous in shape, with colorful but harmonious colors. The temple is built in the style of "tam", with architecture combining Indian art style and ancient Vietnamese national architecture. The pagoda was built with durable materials such as bricks and tiles, cement. At the gate of the three gate is the statue of Quan Am Thi Kinh, inside the gate is a small pagoda yard with a high column of 16 m. The front of the pagoda, in the middle, is a two-storey Buddha worshiping tower. On the upper floor is a statue of Buddha standing in the middle of a high floor, especially in the middle of the front of the pagoda is a tower built in the style of Menara Azan of the mosques (Islam) with a round, high dome. This is probably the influence of the architectural styles of the Muslim villages (Islam), namely the holy mubarak, Chau Giang on the other side of the Hau River, not far from Xi'an pagoda. Four pillars on the lower floor are guarded by guardians, and on the front are two elephants: white and black. The main hall is a large row of houses, two-storey roofs, roofed with large tubes, wooden pillars, plugs, tile floors. The two sides are the gong floor and the quadrilateral drum floor, decorated on top of the statues of sacred animals (long, unicorn, qui, pho) very fine art. The great grand rose in the bell tower was created in the 32nd year of Tu Duc (1879). In the main hall there are about 150 [6] statues large and small: Buddha, Bodhisattva, Arhat, Bat set of vajra, Jade Emperor, Huynh Emperor, Shennong god, etc. elaborate and fine art, representing Vietnamese sculpture in the 19th century. In addition, the pagoda also has many galleries and couplets, vibrant colors. In 1847, the governor of An-Ha (An Giang and Ha Tien), Doan Uan (1795-1850), was happy to set up a great army to defeat the Siamese army, pacify Chan Lap and built a throne. pagoda with brick walls, green stone rolling background, tile roof; and named it Xi'an himself, which implies quietness in the West. In 1861, Venerable Hoang An (Nguyen Nhat Thua) restored the main hall and the post-ancestors. In 1958, Venerable Thich Buu Tho (1893–1972) mobilized to build three new ancient houses, the main and the main hall, so the pagoda has the appearance like today. The first abbot was Venerable Nguyen Van Giac (1788–1875), the legal name of Hai Tinh, who followed the Lam Te sect, so some people called Tay An pagoda the Lam Te pagoda.

Nestled at the base of Nui Sam, Lady Temple at Sam Mountain, also known as Mieu Ba Chua Xu, is a bustling religious site in Vietnam. Devotees can be seen preparing offerings outside the temple, including whole pigs, roast chickens, fruit towers, rice cakes, and pink lotus blossoms. Inside the temple are numerous statues dating back to the 19th century and several stupas dedicated to deceased monks.
The Lady of the Land Temple is currently located at the foot of Sam Mountain in Sam Mountain Ward, Chau Doc City, An Giang Province, but the statue of Lady of the Land was previously located on the top of the mountain. Later, people invited her down to the foot of the mountain for the convenience of burning incense and taking care of her statue. There are also mysterious stories about moving the statue down the mountain that cannot be explained. In the past, before the temple was built, Vietnamese people went up the mountain and accidentally saw a long-forgotten statue. People did not know if it was a god, a saint or a religion, but they followed the custom of worshiping and worshipping, so they placed an incense burner to burn incense and worship their spiritual beliefs. But the special thing was that Lady of the Land was very sacred at that time, making people especially believe in and worship her.

During our first visit to Vietnam, we had the incredible opportunity to visit the Lady Temple at Sam Mountain, and it truly was a unique experience. What made our visit even more special was that we arrived during one of their important celebrations — a vibrant gathering of locals and visitors alike coming to the monastery to make offerings and participate in traditional rituals. The atmosphere was lively and deeply spiritual, with many people paying their respects and celebrating together. We visited around April 5th or 6th, which coincides with an important date in the local calendar (possibly the Hùng Kings’ Festival or another regional observance). Witnessing the temple in this moment of communal devotion was unforgettable. The monastery itself is beautiful, serene, and rich in cultural significance. If you find yourself in the area, a visit to the Lady Temple on Sam Mountain is an absolute must — whether you come during a special occasion or just for a peaceful day of exploration.

The temple's most important festival is held from 23rd to 26th of the fourth lunar month. Thousands of people from across the country gather to workship and celebrate. I came on a weekday, just a normal day but still very crowded and a bit difficult to find a parking lot.

This is considered a sacred pagoda, a destination for visitors, especially on the occasion of Lunar New Year. Update: came back after 5 yrs still a pleasant, value place to visit. No need to buy ticket. Came in weekday so was not crowded. Took approximately 6 hours driving by car from Ho Chi Minh City to here.

Sam Mountain, located in Chau Doc City, An Giang Province, is a significant peak and holy site with numerous temples. Rising 284 meters above sea level, it offers picturesque views of the surrounding plains. Visitors can explore historic structures like Thoa Ngoc Hau Tomb and Temple of Confucius before heading to the mountain. The area around the base of Sam Mountain is home to several pagodas and temples, including Ba Chua Xu Temple.
Amazing place. What a surprise. The mountain is has a cable car to the top. There you find a magical instagram able site and snack stalls and garden but it was the Temple at the bottom which is tardis like, and developed into so many cave rooms; that really blew us away. So peaceful and beautiful. Plus lots of Vietnamese come here to take lovely photos of themselves in national dress. Loved it here.

2 ways to reach the summit, drive a vehicle or take a cable car. I'd prefer the first one. There are many beautiful pagodas on the way up to the mountain, you can drop by. This is the highest mountain in the Mekong Delta, a nice place for overview of the area and also a sacred place. The statue of Ba Chua Xu was found here and then was moved to the current temple.

Tra Su Cajuput Forest, located in An Giang Province, is a vast 800-hectare mangrove landscape that serves as a sanctuary for numerous bird species. Visitors can explore the area by small boat, navigating through narrow channels surrounded by gnarled cajuput trees. The forest is home to a diverse range of colorful birds and other wildlife such as storks, herons, bats, snakes, and turtles.
Incredible place. Apparently it was re-wilded in the 1980s and protected since 2004. Absolutely magical. The biodiversity and wildlife is amazing. The boat trips (one gentle canoe) and two long tail boat trips were fantastic. I could have spent all day just gently floating by. We were super lucky as it was really quiet. We only saw 2 other tourists on the delta that day highly recommend a visit.

Tra Su Cajuput Forest is absolutely a must-visit destination. We booked our trip through our hotel in Chau Doc, which offered a convenient all-inclusive package including tickets and transportation. This was essential because the forest is quite remote—definitely not a place you want to navigate on your own. Our driver took us there, waited patiently during our visit, and brought us back to the hotel, making the whole experience stress-free and seamless. The entrance tickets were included in the package, so there were no hidden costs. The highlight of the visit is undoubtedly the boat ride through the serene waterways of the forest, which is part of the ticket price—no extra fees. The lush greenery, peaceful atmosphere, and unique landscape make Tra Su Cajuput Forest a truly mesmerizing and unforgettable experience. Highly recommended! PS: Do not forget your mosquito repellent.

Beautiful forest with many birds and plants. We bought a combo ticket for 230K that included entry, paddle boat and motor boat. I really enjoyed how peaceful the paddle boat was. The motor boat was a little disappointing - rushed straight through the forest without taking any time to appreciate it. Many other boats were stopped for a long time to get pictures but we just zoomed straight past. They drop you to another part of the forest to explore and then take you back which was nice though. The entry point we put into maps was Thốt Nốt Sữa (Trà Sư) which had free motorbike parking. Definitely recommend going early in the morning.

If you’re looking for a place that perfectly captures Vietnam’s diverse forests and stunning natural beauty, this spot is an absolute must-visit. The entrance ticket costs 120,000 VND, with optional rides that make the experience even more memorable: a motorboat ride for 70,000 VND (round trip) and a rowing boat for another 70,000 VND (round trip). I highly recommend trying both! The motorboat takes you deep into the heart of the forest, where you can admire the vast scenery and peaceful atmosphere. Then, switch to the rowing boat — it glides through narrow forest paths, offering a closer, more intimate view of the surroundings. If you’re lucky, you might even spot a few birds up close! 🐦 On top of that, don’t miss the observation tower — the ticket costs only 5,000 VND, and it’s absolutely worth it! From the top (about five to six stories high), you’ll get a panoramic view of the forest stretching endlessly beneath you — a breathtaking sight you shouldn’t miss. 🌳✨ And here’s a fun bonus: the pigeons here are surprisingly friendly! You can buy a small pack of dried seeds for just 10,000 VND to feed them — some will even perch on your arms to grab a snack. It’s such a wholesome experience, and if you’re curious, check out my video below for a better look at the moment! 🎥✨ The staff here are super friendly, too. You’ll also find a few small souvenir stalls selling charming keepsakes like keychains, traditional Vietnamese costumes, and other handmade items — all at very affordable prices. I even got myself a mini coconut-leaf fan for just 40,000 VND

Visiting Tra Su Cajuput Forest in An Giang was an unforgettable experience that brought you closer to the peaceful beauty of Vietnam’s Mekong Delta. This ecotourism destination is a perfect escape from the busy city life, offering a refreshing connection with nature and wildlife. You will floated through the green canals on a small boat, you was surrounded by a stunning carpet of water lilies and duckweed, with tall cajuput trees forming a natural canopy overhead. The sound of birds and the cool breeze made the journey feel magical. It was fascinating to see so many species of birds and other animals living freely in this natural sanctuary. It was especially beautiful at sunrise and sunset when the soft golden light reflected on the water.

Took the sampan ride. Very relaxing. Back to nature. Huge lotus plants. Don't follow to close the boat in front of you then you can't take nice photos.

Tra Su melaleuca forest is one of the most attractive place to travel at An Giang, suitable for half day trip! Noted that - no private way for wheel chair

Phnom Da Temple

Hindu temple
Sights & Landmarks
Hilltop site with the archaeological remnants of a Funan temple dating back to the 11th century.
Very nice landscape with water surrounding and natural with Very old temple on the top of the mountain
Panha T — Google review
This is an ancient temple in Cambodia that every Cambodian should visit and learn about the magnificent architectural works of our Khmer ancestors.
Siro — Google review
This site is historically significant. There is evidence of human habitation from at least 400BCE and the present temple (11th century) stands on the footprint of an earlier temple (5-6th century). The sculptures from the temple are in both the National Museum in Phnom Penh and a few are in the Angkor Borei museum nearby. When I went they were working on reconstructing the roof. It is situated atop a hill which will require walking up a few flights of stairs. Mosquitoes were about so bring insect repellant. There are important caves, one of which has the Yoni pedestal for a missing Shivalingam. On the other side of the hill is the Asram Maharishi, and although the original deity is long gone, it is currently a venerated shrine in the memory of a great sage.

The temple is located on top of the hill in the ancient region of Angkor Borei. Prasat Phnom Da is a well-preserved brick temple, date back to the Funan era of the 1st to 6th centuries, the temple we see today was built around the 11th century, possibly replacing -be an earlier site.

A relatively huge stand-alone temple located on a tiny hill with about 100 steps to reach. Beautiful landscape to enjoy esp. during rainy season. All of temples located in Takeo province of Cambodia, probably this is one of the best n most recommended temples in the list I would personally suggest.
Lyda H — Google review
Phnom Da temple was built on the top of a small hill in 6th century by King Rutravarman, who reigned during the Norkor Phnom period. The temple is 12 meters square and 18 meters high. It was constructed of brick and sandstone. A Hindu temple, it faces north towards Norkor Kork Thalork (Nokor Phnom) which was the capital of Nokor Phnom (or Funan) at the time the temple was built. Things should be improved there: -stair -trash -parking lots

Neat temple at the top of a hill or "mountain" I'f your from a flat country. Aprox 80 steep steps to top. Would be slippery when wet ... Would be 4 stars but trash everywhere on walk up. Why can people just not make one big pile instead of spreading it out????

Anlung Pring Community-led Ecotourism

Mentioned on

Nature & Wildlife Areas
If you like nature and want to learn about rural life, you definitely have to visit it. We booked a two day guided tour in a homestay and with the help of our great guide Bona we were able to see the Sarus cranes and we learned a lot about rural life. The homestay was also nice even with the language differences. For the price paid it was really worth it, we still have great memories of those two days in our six week trip to Cambodia (a year ago). The only thing that can get a bit complicated is how to get there if you don't drive a motorcycle yourself. If you decide to get there with a tuk tuk, (like we did) make sure the tuk tuk driver knows the way and that the last part of the road there is not so good. Also note that it is not possible to find a tuk tuk for the way back (fortunately, our guide drove us back to Kep). Still, it was a great experience for us and we were glad to contribute a little bit with our visit to this great Ecotourism in Anlung Pring.

Wile visiting Cambodia in August with my wife. We visited when the Cranes were not migrating in the area. We were rather glad, in a way, because instead we tried a few of the local tours. We visited local villages, rice planting and wine making. We deeply enjoyed the authentic experience and were just amazed with how happily we were greeted. I'm sure the cranes are beautiful, but I highly recommend some of the other local tours to see and support some of the local villages!!!

When our bike broke down close to the sarus crane reservation, the current guide and manager of buffalo cafe Bona couldn't have been more helpful. He talked to the mechanic for us to get it fixed (our Khmer is minimal) then he took us around the reservation and introduced us to his lovely family, then when it was time to leave he got one of his friends who was going to kep to show us the way back. One of the best days I have had in Cambodia so far.

Kampong Trach Water Cave

Nice water cave, it’s already a bit of water so defo worth to go see. Landscape around are stunning too. Just, be careful to the kids from the road attracting you to the place, they ask if you look for cave and bring you there, making their self as a little guide. It’s a money trap at the end it’s cost us around 10$+ we were 3 people 😂. It’s nothing like a guide needed there, you take the road on the right from main road and it’s just there. For a bit of time they stop doing that but now they are doing it again. There is view point at the top of the stairs too.
Adeline B — Google review
Magnificent mountain, with vertical cliffs. All caves free entrance , but there are kids who are trying to assist you for small tip. Several food stalls along the road. The road goes around the mountain and it's worth taking the loop as the mountain looks its best from bit afar, across the wet lands. There is a large water cave where you can swim. Popular for kids. Super easy accessible. Water looks transparent and clean and it is a nice temperature. 25m climb up and you can enter a magnificent dry cave with skylights. The cave seams to be maybe 30m tall? No protection seems to be in place so all stalactites and stalagmites are trashed. Instead there are many Buddha's all over the cave. Amazing view from the cave terrace. 100m south there is a much smaller dark cave also wet. No one visits that one. One annoyance ate kids who they to guide you to the cave, although it's super easy to find. Kids also propose to look after your vehicle when you are sightseeing. They basically want some tip. On the other hand, someone did construct stair and balustrade to the upper cave and also levelled the entrance into the wet cave, so I felt like I do want to somehow contribute. At the end I left some cash at the can next to one of Buddha's.
K S — Google review
Definitely worth a visit. It is tucked away but easy to find. The community discovered the cave when some Vietnamese tourist came exploring. The community built some steps to help people access the caves and provide tours for a small tip. There is a great view in the cave they call the sun cave. We traversed the top to reach the other cave, but you can go down and take the other steps. At the bottom is another cave with a large pond of clear cool water.

Small and authentic farm where everything— from pepper to jackfruits and mangoes — is grown organically, and where the staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming. We had the chance to get a very informative tour of the farm and taste the different types of equally delicious peppers before the start of our cooking class. Our chef was absolutely lovely and taught us how to prepare delicious chicken curry, lok lak and chek ktis. There’s also a variety of products available in their shop, and you can relax in their many hammocks. An absolute must-see!

Excellent! You get a free tour with tasting when you arrive. Our guide was really friendly and funny! You aren’t pressured into buying anything at the end either although we did but some of the rum and fresh pepper

Today I had the pleasure of a private tour of the farm, guided in very friendly and fluent English. Afterwards, we enjoyed a pepper tasting, accompanied by many personal stories and fascinating bits of history. The whole experience felt wonderfully relaxed and authentic. On site, there is also a restaurant and the chance to buy local products. The pepper itself is absolutely delicious – for me, the green pepper was the clear highlight. There’s even the opportunity to join a cooking class, which makes the visit all the more special.

Very interesting farm. They gave the visitors free tour of the pepper farm and the fruit farm. We are allowed to eat the fruits too for free. Mangoes, rambutan. Superb! As an indonesian, i approve. You can also purchase different peppers there. The peppers do taste better, maybe because of organic? Enjoy! Please purchase to support the local farm. Oh, the ride to the place was also very interesting. We had so much fun driving the motorbike and enjoyed the villages around. Very recommend if you are in town! Ps: if you worry about not having international license, we didn't see any police stop. Heck, kids are driving here. :))

Less touristy pepper farm in a beautiful area. Here, you can take a free guided tour of the farm and learn about the history of pepper cultivation in Cambodia, as well as the various types of pepper grown on the farm.

We really enjoyed our trip out here and the drive is really pretty. Very easy to get to by motorbike. The people are really friendly and welcoming- they offer lemongrass and pepper tea upon arrival which was very good. The tour was informative and the guide spoke good English. We were also excited to buy some organic pepper and tea to bring back home.

BoTree Farm is a delightful destination that offers an enriching experience for visitors. Nestled in a scenic area, it’s perfect for families and those looking to explore local agriculture. Guests can enjoy complimentary guided tours led by knowledgeable staff who are eager to share insights about the farm's pepper cultivation methods and varieties. The tours are not only informative but also engaging, making them suitable even for those who may not be fans of pepper initially.
First things first: if your tuk-tuk or guide takes you to a pepper shop by a lake or dam, ask them to drive you further to the BoTree pepper farm. It's only a few minutes away. A wonderful welcome awaits you. You'll learn a lot about pepper and the farm while receiving free tea or ordering something else to drink or eat. Your guide, Son, is simply fantastic. He will then show you around the farm, where you'll see and learn other great things. It was one of the most beautiful and interesting trips in Kampot.

I visited the farm for a tour two weeks ago, and I had a very knowledgeable guide Son. I learned about pepper cultivation, different types of peppercorns, and the two varieties of pepper plants on the farm. Afterwards I had lunch at the cafe, the beef loc lac was really good. I also tried the fish Amok, very rich in flavors and quite refreshing. The shop has all kinds of peppercorn to choose from, it’s truly a paradise for foodies and cooks.

Very interesting tour, the lovely French guide(sorry forgot your name) knowledgeable and entertaining. The pepper tasting was amazing, who knew there were so many types of pepper, the interesting growth, harvesting, regulations, organic growing. we had pepper tea, delicious, sampled all types of pepper, palm sugar, pepper with salt, and I purchased 3 boxes of 3 different peppers, vacume sealed, and with a letter of authentication for Australian Customs. Most enjoyable, I can now enlighten my friends next dinner party

We came to BoTree Farm for the guided tour through the pepper plantation. The tour was great and we gained a lot of interesting insights. Also the tasting was really interesting and we learned a lot about pepper. Since it’s all tip based, it really is a great value. The real star though was the Lok Lak. I ate a lot of Lok Lak in Cambodia, but the Lok Lak at BoTree Farm is by far (!!!) the best I’ve had. All in all we had a wonderful time, thanks!

I decided to come here instead of to La Plantation hoping it would be less commercialised and it definitely has more of a lowkey family run feel to it! Positively surprised that the road is paved all the way from Kampot to the farm (it's about a 25-30min drive), I was welcomed by a volunteer who told me the next tour would start shortly. While waiting I had the pepper ice cream for 2$ and while it wasn't sweet the taste was good and definitely something I hadn't tried before! The tour was with a volunteer from the US who has only arrived st the farm the previous day but she did an amazing job and remembered a lot of information in that short amount of time! It took about 40 minutes and takes you through the history of pepper in Cambodia and the whole pepper harvesting process. I learned a lot and the tasting back at the house after also just highlighted the difference in quality! Afterwards you can get some gifts at the shop and hang out at the restaurant or by the lake.

A small scale pepper farm compared to some but in a class of its own. We loved it! We learnt so much. The tour by the Swedish volunteer guide was excellent in every respect as was the pepper tasting at the end of the tour. It is a must do trip from either Kampot or Kep.
Chris S — Google review
A boutique Kampot pepper producer, with impressive quality marks and awards in the UK (including 'Great Taste'). We did a tasting of their products and was really impressive - the salted and fermented peppercorns were new to me (apparently a popular beer snack in Japan) and were great. They have lovely Khmer staff augmented by volunteers from Singapore, mainland China & France (when we were visiting). The food was among the best Khmer food we've had - authentic, but prepared to western quality - ingredients, portion size and presentation. We had mango salad, fish amok, pork red curry and sweet and sour fish. The setting is lovely - on the edge of a small lake, and surrounded in rolling hills. Khmer wife and English husband team who live on farm, and also run the Kampot Pepper Shop in Kampot town centre, near the Old Market - you can get product from all the major Kampot pepper producers there. When going to the farm, make sure you take the correct turn - there's a few pepper farms around, and you don't want to go to the wrong one!

La Plantation Restaurant is located on a beautiful organic pepper farm that offers guided walks in multiple languages to educate visitors about the cultivation and processing of various pepper varieties. In addition to peppers, the farm also grows fruits, chillis, herbs, and peanuts. The restaurant on-site serves delicious dishes such as aubergine and offers an opportunity to learn about the farm's products through tours. Visitors can also purchase pepper and homemade sauces from the shop, with proceeds supporting local children's English classes.
Such a beautiful place. I can’t believe such a great and informative tour is free! I’ve genuinely never taken an interest in pepper or how it’s grown but it was so interesting to learn about and we absolutely loved the tasting. Their new Spice Bar offers breathtaking views and I would come again for a drink and to just take in the surroundings. Tried the most delicious coconut, tamarind and cinnamon sorbet and the vanilla and pepper is yummy as well.

I was there on a tour from "Getyourguide", it was approximately 1.5h long. Local staff and guide speak English very well and can explain all the processes on the plantation in a very detailed way. I was happy to find out that plantation supports local community and school, people who worked there were truly happy about working conditions. The plantation itself is an amazing place, like taken directly from a movie, surrounded by rich green landscapes. There's a store inside, offering a variety of over 100 spices, you can try most of them before purchase.

A wonderful place to visit. Make sure to take the free farm tour and tasting. It takes approximately 1hr and you learn all about how they grow and make pepper and also get to taste many different types. They’re also a company giving back to the community. Entry is free which is good and the products in the shop are not too expensive. A top attraction in Kampot

I really enjoyed tasting, understanding, and learning how pepper grows there. There was a variety of pepper mostly grown in Kampot, but some was brought from other provinces in Cambodia and/or other countries. They also provided a free tour of the farm with an English or French-speaking tour guide. Everything here is worth the time to come and check out. They also sell their peppers, teas, and other products that they grow there. I highly recommend the butterfly herbal tea as shown in the picture. 5/5, definitely I would come back.

Island
Nature & Parks
Kaoh Tonsay, also known as Rabbit Island, is a small and undeveloped island with lush greenery and limited facilities. Despite the lack of infrastructure, it offers a unique adventure for visitors seeking a peaceful retreat. The island has minimal amenities, irregular boat schedules, and limited dining and accommodation options. However, it provides an opportunity to disconnect from modern life and immerse in nature's tranquility.
The beach on this Cambodian island is absolutely stunning! Crystal-clear waters, soft white sand, and a peaceful atmosphere make it the perfect place to relax and unwind. The surroundings are pristine, with lush greenery and breathtaking views. The locals are warm and welcoming, and there are plenty of activities like snorkeling and kayaking for those seeking adventure. A true paradise for nature lovers and beach enthusiasts

If you are visiting Kep you should make time to spend a day or longer here. So relaxing. Chill out in a hammock, swim, eat wonderful meals and take a walk around the island like we did. Next time we will take an extended break and stay in one of the cute bungalows. Such a special place. These places really do exist.

Not really ... but yes, it is the best beach in Kep (due to nothing there). I've expected quiet island with clean beaches and place to snorkel. Nothing of it. The only usable beach is where you land by boat. This one is nice sandy beach and good for swimming in the sea. There is nothing there for snorkeling. Other beaches (counterclockwise from main where you land): - "Small" or "Stone" beach: well, fishermen are occupying this one and heavy diggers and trucks are leveling ground for construction site, - nice sandy beach full of trash as usually in Cambodia and heavy diggers and trucks are leveling ground for construction site, - "Coral" beach: it's algae farm now. Next is stony, shallow and mangrove seashore with humps of muddy dead algae. Be warned: I've not gone far on the remote beaches but have seen many dead sea urchin shells. Walk around the island: skip it. Unless you are true dedicated nature lover ... Nothing there and path is not maintained and overgrown in few parts. It's leading partially through bushes & mangroves (shoes and long trousers recommended) and through wet smelly humps (like mud) of rotting algae on "Coral Beach" (algae farm bay - you have to stump upon coral to find it under the water if there is any). I wish I know it before so I just spend a chill out day on beach where boats are landing.

It’s such a quiet, natural, peaceful place to relax for one or two day. You can have a good seafood there or pack by yourself. At 10pm, there will be electricity cut off if you do not pay a bit more. It is also good while electricity cut off at night to see the view of the clear sky and listen to the sea waving sound. In the evening, you can enjoy with the stunning view of the sunset. In the morning, you can take a walk to another part to explore more. It is not really clean but it is a good walk. You spend 25$ for a boat going and coming back. It is until 4pm only. If you take the boat to the island almost at 4pm, you have to stay there one night so you can come back tomorrow.

Kep Butterfly Garden

Kep Butterfly Garden is a serene and lush spot to visit while in Kep. The gardens are filled with lovely plants, flowers, and butterflies, creating a tranquil atmosphere for a leisurely stroll. Although the road leading to the garden may be slightly rough, it's nothing major as long as you drive carefully. There's no entrance fee; visitors are encouraged to leave a donation instead.
Very tranquil place with a butterfly house. We came by foot from the Kep National Park trail. The traverse path is short, steep and little slippery, but worth the descend. Entrance fee is 1$ and for the same amount you can buy a cold drink or chips. It's really worth coming and supporting this facility and the family here. Looks like they started growing bananas now and hopefully the fruits of this effort will land in some tourists bellies.

Beautiful garden to visit, it was just a few of butterfly when we went there because they had an issue with cocoon. But the place is really beautiful, and the inside net garden is magical. The road is ok in scooter to go.

From my experience use to come in the butterfly garden, sometimes we have visited there during rainy weather and the butterflies cannot come out to fly for us to see because they are afraid of the rain and their wings getting wet will be died so they keep stay under the tree leafs also now there not so much of the butterfly because the people live around there they spray the grass by very strong chemicals that spray fly into the garden so why that no have so much butterfly But I still want to visit because there nice garden and quiet 🥰🥰🥰

Me and my girlfriend came up here in the afternoon one day. Slightly difficult to get to, you can’t follow google maps as this does not show the correct road, there are other reviews we followed which got us here. We were on bikes and the dirt road was a bit difficult but worth it! Not sure why others reviews say they didn’t see any butterflies, we saw loads! Got a few photos of some of the ones on show but there are loads more here. Entry is $1. The actual butterfly part is fairly small but we just took our time and sat down a few times. You can also wander around the gardens. We were probably here an hour or so. Worth it for the dollar!
Oli S — Google review
The Butterfly Garden was not open today. Maybe because of the low season, maybe closed forever? It was kind of cool to walk around the abandoned place, but sadly not many butterflies. If you plan to walk over there, starting from Led Zep Café, expect a very steep path with ropes to hold on to.

GET TO THE BUTTERLY GARDEN BY BIKE (Google Maps Fix) First, don't follow the directions given by Maps. I've tried to fix it in Maps, but Google has no information for the road (Maps screenshot 1). That road will take you to the exit gate of the national park. There is no way in from there. In fact, the concrete national park road won't go past Kep Butterfly Garden either, even if you take the entrance road anticlockwise (Maps screenshot 2). What you want to do is follow the route in Maps screenshot 3. Instead of taking a left towards the national park, carry on straight for about 1 km. Next, take a left at the small sign for the butterfly garden (photo 1 and 2, Maps screenshot 4). Carry on along this gravel road. When you come to fork in the road, go left. You'll know you're close when you see the sign for the butterfly garden next to the Keo Organic Farm (photo 3). Take the left and carry on for about 100m - 200m. Can't miss it from there.

The garden is beautiful and very well maintained, you can see various flowers and butterflies, as well as caterpillars and hatching. Worth the trip and the $1 entrance fee.
Ori — Google review
The Butterfly Garden is not particularly special, but it is interesting to see how the butterflies are raised in their cocoons. There is also a small covered area, nicely arranged, where you can spot some butterflies. The variety is limited, but it’s still a pleasant activity and a nice change of pace while in Kep. Be aware that Google Maps shows the wrong route. Make sure to check other Google reviews for the correct directions, otherwise it can be hard to find. The road goes quite a way up the hill, so it takes a bit of effort to get there. Entrance is $1, as they ask for a small donation. Not a must-see, but worth a short visit

Nature & Parks
Kep National Park, established in 1993, is a nature reserve located in the remote areas of Kep in Cambodia. It features an 8km circuit suitable for walking and mountain biking, passing through dense forests, wats, and viewpoints. The 'Stairway to Heaven' trail leads to a pagoda, nunnery, and Sunset Rock viewpoint.
What an amazing 8 k.m. motorbike ride or very long walk throughout KEP national park. Amazing concrete sealed road & I'm shocked that it's not on the tourist maps. The forests, trees , scenery was spectacular to say the least & very well worth the visit Such an awesome place not to be missed.

Had a great 10km run at Kep National Park. The road is in good condition, surrounded by nature with fresh air all around. The views are beautiful, and I even caught the sunrise — a perfect way to start the day. Highly recommend for runners and nature lovers!
Sothyreak P — Google review
This is a really beautiful park with an 8 km paved loop that is easy to access through two entrances. There is a ranger at the entrance, and the $1 fee per person is definitely worth it. We first entered from the left side of the park and started walking towards inland, then continued onto the so-called Jungle Route (I think?). The trail quickly turned into a steep climb where we had to hold onto trees and plants to make our way up. It felt adventurous, but after a while the path became harder and harder to follow until it almost disappeared completely. At that point we decided to turn back, which was not easy, especially going down, it was quite a tricky descent. Back on the main paved path, we continued on the standard route towards Sunset Rock Viewpoint. This part was much easier and absolutely worth it. The view was stunning, and it felt like a rewarding end to the walk. Overall, the park offers both adventurous trails and accessible routes, making it a great place to explore. Sunset Rock is highly recommended. It would get 5 stars if all the paths were kept well and marked.

The Krung Kep Blue Swimmer Crab Statue is a magnificent tribute to the abundant crab reserves in Kep, Cambodia. This iconic blue crab statue stands proudly in the sea, symbolizing the city's association with this delicious crustacean. It has become a local landmark and a popular spot for locals and tourists alike to take photos and enjoy the beautiful sight of the sea.
No visit to Kep beach is complete without an IG moment with the giant Blue Crab. It's also the perfect place to get a unique shot using a drone.

This statue is quite outstanding and stands out well. It symbolise the famous flower sea crabs in Kep but unfortunately no more and what's left are baby and small ones. There are few mobile stalls set up along the pathway here selling bbq shrimps and squids but no crabs.

Riding down from Kampot. Half journey road condition is bad with potholes. Beach is not suitable for swimming. It's just a place to enjoy the sea breeze. Nearby Hill, there are some cafes with an awesome view of the horizon. The weekends are fully packed with locals coming in drove to enjoy a whole day lazing around in rented huts with hammocks. Seafood was famous among the locals coming from nearby towns.

As you can see by the picture, it was high tide when we stopped here. It was very exciting as the sea was gun-metal grey and impressive in strength. It had been a usual, muggy hot and humid day, so I took great delight in being sprayed as the waves crashed against the ballasts lining the beach. It didn't look like it was possible to swim anywhere near there as it was too rough and the sandy beach had all but disappeared.
Heather S — Google review
A huge statue of a giant crab on the Kep beach, Waterfront, Kep, Cambodia offers a beautiful sightseeing and the symbolic of Kep City. It’s the photo spot and famous place for people to enjoy fresh crab at the beach or they buy at the crab market. There were few small restaurants and eateries which offers delicious sea foods, drinks and beer. A perfect place to witness a beautiful and mesmerizing view of sunset during evening.
Soklyda S — Google review
Kep is synonymous with crab, so it is only fitting that it has a giant statue paying tribute to the crustacean. It should come as no surprise then that the Kep Crab Statue is a local landmark that depicts a blue swimmer crab. Cambodians flock from far and wide to devour this local delicacy that can be found in abundance at the crab market down the road. It’s hard to miss the crab statue. If you continue on the road past Kep Beach you will pass by the crab statue standing proudly in the sea. Nothing quite says “Kep” like crab, so it is a popular spot for taking selfies. Join in the action, pull over and start snapping.
Nguyên H — Google review
This statue is erected as a representation of the famous indigenous Blue Swimmer crab which is found in the beach-side waters of Kep. From here,these are even sent out to high quality dining restaurants in the capital,Phnom Penh. One can also buy them at the crab market,just after they are caught.Direct from the sea to the plate.

Kep Beach is a charming white-sand beach in the town of Kep, Cambodia. It offers a relaxed seaside village feel with local seafood restaurants and traveler accommodations nearby. Visitors can explore the unique Kep Crab Market and enjoy waterfront dining options. Additionally, the beach serves as a starting point for boat trips to nearby islands, making it an ideal spot for a leisurely day by the sea.
As far as Cambodia’s beaches go, Kep is by far the best. The surf is almost non existent (it’s a shallow bay) but there are now chairs, umbrellas and hammocks to rent for the day. The scenery is stunning and they keep it clean. Plenty of little stores and food carts around too.

I visited the beach on a rainy day. The sea was murky with big waves. The sky was filled with dark grey clouds, heavy with rain. Perhaps when the dry season comes around, the beach will look picture perfect. Nevertheless, there were many visitors enjoying the bracing winds.

Kep Beach – A Peaceful Escape in Cambodia Kep Beach, located in southern Cambodia, is a quiet and peaceful coastal destination ideal for travelers seeking relaxation. Also known as the “capital of blue crabs,” Kep is famous for its fresh seafood, especially crab dishes that are both delicious and reasonably priced. The beach itself is clean, with calm waters and soft sand, perfect for swimming or simply enjoying the sun. During the day, visitors can take part in various beachside activities such as kayaking, paddleboarding, or exploring nearby islands by boat. There are also local restaurants and cafes where you can enjoy a drink while taking in beautiful ocean views. Despite its charm, Kep remains quite undeveloped. Public facilities and infrastructure are still limited, and after sunset, the town becomes very quiet, with few options for nightlife or evening entertainment. Kep Beach is best suited for travelers who prefer peaceful natural settings, authentic local food, and a slower pace of life. It’s an excellent weekend escape from busy cities or a relaxing stop on a broader trip through southern Cambodia. If you’re looking for a calm retreat and some of the best crab dishes in Southeast Asia, Kep is definitely worth a visit.

Phnom Chhngok Cave

Mentioned on

Archaeological site
Nature & Parks
Phnom Chhngok Cave is an ancient cave temple with Hindu carvings and rock formations, offering spiritual significance and stunning views of the countryside. The entrance has been formalized with a ticket booth and information boards. Inside, there's a very old shrine from the pre-Angkor period, accessible via proper stairs for all visitors. For a deeper exploration, hiring a guide is recommended to navigate the narrow passages and learn about the 7th-century temple inside.
So peaceful place, full of beautiful views on greenish countryside with palm trees and little hills. Cave with sanctuary is so beautiful, same as the way to it. You need to go up on the stairs and admire its design, same as the little pagoda in the beginning pf the way. Cave is not so big, but it worths for your visit
Klara D — Google review
A very quiet and peaceful place. Takes a short hike up some stairs to get to the cave but it’s worth it and the view across the farmland is stunning too. Costs 5000 Riel to enter and there is an option of a guided tour through the caves but we did not take them up on that.
Olly S — Google review
Came here to make the most of using the scooter I rented and got an unexpected but amazing adventure out of it! The road from Kampot to the cave is paved all the way except for the last couple hundred meters that is a sandy muddy bumpy road. If you don't wanna get the scooter dirty or scraped maybe park by the road and walk the rest, especially after heavy rain. Once you get on the dirt road take the second road to the right (on the left of the small canal) - do NOT continue along the road despite a big sign pointing in that direction! That is another cave shrine that isn't as interesting and an even longer bumpy ride away. After going down the road next to the canal you will soon see the sign and a house where you can park, get a drink or use the toilet or continue driving down the field road to the cave entrance. I decided to park by the house and walk the last few meters as there was a big puddle from the rain I didn't want to drive through. When I got there, a guy on a bike asked me if I wanted a guide and then walked with me to the cave guards who informed me that the entrance fee is 1$ (I paid via ABA). Pao, the guide, then walked up the stairs to the entrance with me, making a quick stop by a nice view where he offered to take a photo for me. The stairs aren't long but quite steep so take it slow. Once inside, he showed me some of the shrines where people leave offerings and told me about the customs and history of the cave. There are also some bats in the dark corners high up. Afterwards he told me that there are multiple ways to walk through the cave to the exit downhill and that one of them can only be taken when it hasn't rained too much and if you're not too big. That sounded exciting so Pao and I literally crawled and made our way through tunnels and corridors in complete darkness except for the bright flash light be brought, seeing many many bats and walking through caverns that are completely flooded during rainy season. It's definitely a challenging (downhill) climb with some potential drops at certain points but Pao ensured me no one died here before haha He has been in these caves and given tours since he was a teenager and you could really tell by how easily he traversed it and shone the light on particular spots where I was supposed to put my feet, hands or watch my head. It took probably 10-15 minutes before we crawled through a narrow opening and ended up downhill by the entrance where we had met. It was a crazy and fun experience and more than worth the 5$! Thank you Pao if you read this 😊
Olivia S — Google review
The cave is small as well as the temple inside. But it does have a cool Indiana Jones feeling to it. Just be advised: if it has rained you will be suffering. It’s a muddy dirt road that is under water when it rains. I have seen people pushing tuktuks out of the dirt so if weather is not great maybe use a car to get here Entrance fee is 5000 KHR per person
Jonas K — Google review
The cave was very good and the guides were good. However, we had a young lad that we believe had a disability. He was very friendly and helpful throughout. Halfway through another guy took over and took us through the cave and again was very good. We then got to the end and the second guy asked to tip the guide and we didn’t have much left to spend so I gave them 11,000 to share and the second guy refused and said he wasn’t going to give the first lad anymore than 1,000. So we felt guilty and gave the other lad 10,000 which we couldn’t leave without tipping him to. So please remember to stick with 1 guide and don’t fall for this trick like we did as they know what they are doing which ruined it for us a little👍🏻
Darren W — Google review
A nice cave, a little out the way with a small temple. There are locals that offer a cave tour as there's a way to get through the cave system and come out another exit. Entrance is $1 but they first attempted to charge me 10,000KHR. Parking is free. Lots of steps and no wait time.

One of the most underrated mountain and cave in Cambodia. Surrounded by fresh air and green scenery, the cave is full of intriguing stories and mysteries. It is small and not for those who enjoy deep exploration but worth a visit. If you’re a beginner cave explorer or unfamiliar with the terrain, you can even hire local kids to help guide you during your exploration.

Old Royal Cinema, originally built in 1951, was known for screening Indian films and cowboy westerns with Khmer dubbing. Meanwhile, Maison de Theatre le Grandeur, later renamed as 7 Makara Cinema in the 1930s, specialized in Chinese martial arts films. Unfortunately, both cinemas suffered during the Khmer Rouge era and never fully recovered. Despite this decline, the historical building has been beautifully restored and now features a lush reception area with a partially open sky.

History Museums
The Kampot Provincial Museum, housed in a former French representative's residence, offers a glimpse into the region's rich history. For a small entry fee, visitors can explore exhibits featuring ancient archaeological artifacts and learn about the area's past, including the Pre-Angkorian Era. The museum also showcases the influence of French colonial architecture in Kampot and provides insights into the province's development.
All the whining and outrage about the $2 entrance fee to the museum! To see this magnificent building empty is worth far more than $2. Perhaps you would be more comfortable with a visit to New York City. A trip to the 86th floor of the Empire State Building for a panoramic view of the city (if you can see it through the smog) will cost you north of $45. Lots of pushing and shoving at no additional charge!

Farm Link is a renowned pepper plantation center situated in Kampot, Cambodia. It's home to the popular Kadode Kampot Pepper, the largest pepper brand in Cambodia. Visitors can enjoy a complimentary tour of the Pepper Garden, where they can engage in workshops, taste different types of peppers, observe demonstrations of pepper processing and drying. The cooperative gathers harvests from numerous local farmers and offers an educational experience on the manufacturing processes for various peppers like black, red, and white.
Very nice and friendly staff, they gave us a free tour in their production, offered a free pepper, vanilla and palm sugar tasting and answered all our questions

Farm Link is a very good place to visit to learn about peppers if you have young children. We took our 5 year old and he got to learn about pepper farming in a short, concise, child-friendly way and it was interesting for us two adults as well! The lady doing the tour was very informative and friendly. We got to taste all the different peppers and learn about the sorting process and we could look around the gardens as well where they grow some peppers. It is also for free! Though we gave a donation as it was well deserved.

Great place where they explain you the different manufacturing processes of the different peppers (black, red and white). It is a cooperative that collects the harvests of dozens of small local farmers.

The young lady who gave us the tour was extremely friendly (thanks to her!) Thank you !

The shop has good prices, we went out having bought way too much than we needed 😉 Must go when you are in Kampot.

Stopped here hoping to see some rapids but in January and it seems the river has been dammed further up or maybe it's just dry season. It was a nice five minute rest stop in the shade from the afternoon sun and was quite calming and picturesque but not the experience and swimming hole we were hoping for. There were a few locals at the waters edge, washing or cooling off, but then one of them pulled rubbish out of the water bed. The car park is generally as dirty as the river. No special reason to visit unless the rains come back to fill the rapids. The nature opposite seemed quite unspoiled but the bridge across was closed up. (the photos were strategically taken to show the best side, sorry).

Good spot for spending the day relaxing, swimming, eating. Busy during Kings Birthday. Mid morning gets the best shady river front spots. No entry fees.

Just a river with rocks. Splish. Splash. Splush. Sit and watch locals try to swim. $2 to enter the area. I can make better rapids in the shower. Only $1 if you want to see....

Popokvil Waterfall

Mentioned on 
1 list 
Scenic spot
Nature & Parks
Waterfalls
Popokvil Waterfall in Bokor National Park is a picturesque attraction with an admission fee, hiking trail, and sizable eatery. Although the water may not be at its most beautiful during March, visitors can enjoy meals and refreshments such as coffee, soda or water at the on-site restaurant. Additionally, there are kiosks available near the entrance where one can relax while enjoying their own meals.
A nice place to go for lunch and picnic - scenic road and then view is also nice when you reach there. Ticket gets you a free water bottle. Plus there is a cafe and restaurant also to eat food & drinks. Must visit to this place for sure.

There was a buffet available for 3$ when we were there on a Sunday, really good food and plenty. There are free toilets for all visitors. The waterfall had only little water and you can only look from the top. If you drive a little further there is a strawberry farm.

Visited after some heavy rain showers in the preceding days meaning that the waterfall was flowing well. No obvious ways to get to the bottom but from the top you can see the power of the river. There is a small entrance fee of 2000 Riel but that includes a small bottle of water. There is also a restaurant on site

*I would recommend going there for a clean toilet* Entry was 2,000 rial/ 0.5 USD, with a complementary small bottle of water For the waterfall itself we didn’t manage to climb down because of the bad weather so I can’t speak for all. The river is okay and has signs saying ‘don’t visit the waterfalls’ apparently 😂😂😂😂

Small waterfall, good for a picture or 2. Buffet was alright for $3. If you are up the tree anyway it's worth checking out. 2,000 to get in but can redeem for bottled water.
Chris B — Google review
Upon checking the reviews on Google Maps, we initially thought we could swim here. We paid 2000 riel, or $0.50, but could only view the waterfall, as swimming was not possible due to the strong current. We asked the staff if swimming was ever allowed, and they informed us that it is prohibited in all seasons due to numerous deaths. They should have made this clear beforehand. Additionally, they shouldn’t charge for access, as it’s a natural site. If swimming were permitted, a fee would be justified for maintaining cleanliness and hygiene. Nevertheless, the waterfall views were truly spectacular.

Not much to see or do, only a small viewing space for the waterfall. There's a large restaurant you can eat at and it's 2,000KHR to view the waterfall. I would suggest skipping it, unless you plan on eating. Plenty of parking and space outside to sit with your own food.

Ha Tien Night Market

Market
Food & Drink
Farmers Markets
It's nicely done although when I was there, there were more vendors than buyers. Still, people are out and about singing karaoke, enjoying themselves, so when I stopped there to listen a gentleman came to my table, gave me some grapes 🤗 and we ended up talking through Google translate. No matter what, it will be an experience, one way or the other. Cheers
Urban L — Google review
the night market in Hà Tiên is an interesting place and the area of town where locals meet, have dinner, and socialize. At first it wasn't easy figuring out where or what to eat because of our language barrier but after some research we learned how everything operates. Friendly vendors, friendly locals, and delicious food to be had. Also people singing karaoke, and street performers add to the allure of this night market.

More crowded at weekend. All specialties & seafood ready to eat and drinks, snacks Electric-Tricycle tour is recommended for sight-seeing. Hotel & hostel nearby river side.

It is running down of business. Less busy than a few years ago. It is showing local economy is not good. Sad for tenants and vendors there. Many same items in many shops.

Good 👍
Dan N — Google review
Quite strange that the price is double price or 60-70% higher than the price we eat several time in Sai Gon! The point is: nothing eaten was good, all fade tasting. Never come back unless no other choice during late hour. 2* only because there is a nice view, although the smell of water sometimes causes lost of appetizing.

Great bike and excellent rental service! The price is very reasonable, and the owner is incredibly friendly and helpful. They deliver and pick up the bike for you, making the whole process super convenient. The bike runs perfectly, we rode across the entire island, from main roads to small, rough paths, without any issues. I can’t recommend it enough! If you’re looking for a reliable bike and great people to support, this is the place to go.

Great motorcycle, very friendly owner! I contacted them in advance to bring the motorcycle to the airport. As soon as I landed, I picked up the motor and rode it directly to the hotel in the south for check-in. It was very convenient to use for the past three days. I rode it to watch the sunset town and all the visit area, and I strongly recommend this shop to everyone. On the last day, the owner even came to my hotel to pick up the motor, making my itinerary very convenient!

It's absolutely brilliant, the service, bikes and people. We had 3 bikes, all nice looking Honda's. Half tank of petrol, helmets and rain covers for free. We rescheduled the return 2 times with them being always polite and flexible. 5 stars service - absolutely recommend it to anyone who want to rent a bike on Phu Quoc.

Impeccable service! Everything went so smooth we did it all on Whatsapp, he then delivered the motorbike (half empty tank!) at my hotel at 8am and picked it up at my hotel as well. I highly recommend it
Tony K — Google review
We were so happy to meet the owner! We rented two motorbikes for seven days, with pickup and drop-off right at the airport – super convenient. Thanks to that, exploring Phu Quoc was easy and stress-free. The motorbikes were relatively new, well-maintained, powerful, and ran smoothly without a single issue. The owner was always available and responsive in case we needed any support, which gave us great peace of mind. We’re extremely satisfied with the service and highly recommend Tính Nguyen Motor Rental to anyone visiting Phu Quoc! You have many options of motors to rent also. Thank Tính for your great and 5 star service!!!

Perfect scooter rental. Incredible service, simple and fast. I chose this service based on Google reviews and I’m really not disappointed. Easy communication via WhatsApp, and he was able to deliver the scooter the next day (even the same day if needed). He came directly to my accommodation, showed me how the scooter worked, provided two helmets, and even accompanied me to an ATM for payment. Very competitive price for the service offert: 150,000 VND/day (600,000 VND for 4 days). For the return, he adapted to my plans: originally planned to meet at the port, but in the end, he met me at the airport at 5 AM without any issue. Smooth communication, perfect punctuality. After several scooter rentals in Asia, this was my best experience: simple, efficient, and hassle-free. Highly recommended, it allowed us to explore many parts of the island, including areas only accessible by scooter, which we truly enjoyed.

Everything was nice and smooth. They bring bike wherever you ask (we got it directly from airport) and also pick it up later from your hotel if you ask so. Completely free. Customer service is absolutely great, bike was also in good condition.
Alec — Google review
Got a NVX 155cc in perfect state and they delivered it to the airport. Vehicle working perfectly, tank half full when received, they don’t hold your passport as a deposit and the price is the best on the island. So far, the best rental place in Vietnam for me!
