Koh
Kong City is the capital of Koh Kong province, a comparatively small
town sitting on the east side of the Koh Pao River about
10km from the Cham Yeam border crossing with Thailand. Many
travelers see Koh Kong only briefly as they pass through on
the way to/from the border, but that is changing as the
province becomes something of an eco-destination. Northeast
of the city the jungled Cardamom Mountains cover much of the
province, offering
trekking, biking and river excursion possibilities. To the
south secluded beaches line the coastline and nearby island
of the same name as the city and province, Koh Kong. Base
your adventures out of the city where you can arrange tours
and trips. The selection of accommodations and dining in
town is a bit limited but there is still a fair choice of
budget and mid range hotels as well as a few good dining
opportunities, including a couple of riverside places
specializing in fresh seafood. |
