Kampot Visit
Visit Kampot and enjoy this provincial town
Kampot Update, my visit on August 23
The riverfront walk continues to undergo refurbishment and overall, the nightlife area is certainly more organized and livelier. No shortage of “invitations” to join the revelers in the bars. No shortage of girls, although as may be expected, they easily outnumber the revelers, during this low season.
I noticed that, unsurprisingly, 7/11 have established themselves, and I think that there were many more street food sellers, to brighten up the evening river walk.
The Tourist Office, next to the old bridge, disappointingly, was unable to answer a question about a rather impressive statue of a mounted warrior, see image below, near the Provincial Museum. I had wanted to ask at the Museum but discovered that it was closed and that the artifacts were due to be moved to a new venue. The Tourist Office had other theories about that, but in the end, thought that the statue in question may depict a long-ago king, the name of which, they did not know. It would be nice to obtain accurate tourist information from the Tourist Office.
They were certainly interested in promoting tours and selling tea etc. Furthermore, I suggest that those interested in evening cruises should visit the ships agents, adjacent to where the boats are moored. Simply cross the old bridge, to the side of the tourist office, and turn left where you cannot miss the colored lights of the boats. Tip, make sure to have mosquito repellent handy during the evening.
Kampot Visit in December 22
December 22, Just returned from another short visit to Kampot. I am hoping to return again soon. In the meantime, however, here are a couple more images. Moreover, during my next visit, I’m really looking forward to an opportunity to investigate some local trips, including Kep and add additional images and comments.
BTW, This time I used the Virak Buntham bus service going down for $9, and Vibol Express coming back for $8. Both are very efficient, with drivers taking good care and arriving on time.
