Kampot town shows some of Indochina's best preserved colonial era shophouses creating a lovely old world feel. This small silence Kampot town is a common gateway to Preah Monivong Bokor National Park, the renowned whole-year round cool climate mountain and its self history.The stunning panoramic views from the mountain tops are greatly appreciated by visitors. Teuk Chhou Rapids and Prek Ampil Resort are within a short distance from each other and are the places beyond experience. Limestone caves, durian farms, pepper farms, salt farms and bird sanctuary are also worthwhile stops in Kampot. At the present, this coastal province is one among the potential eco-tourism provinces in Cambodia with its famous Bokor Mountain waiting for visitors to explore and experience.
Kampot was one of Cambodia’s most important ports and trading centre until the establishment of a deep sea port at Sihanouk Ville in the 1950s. The legacy of French colonial administration is stronger there than in most other provincial towns. The riverside is lined with turn of the century buildings languishing in stately decay. Their strong, simple geometrical forms, high ceilings, hardwood floors, and mustard yellow walls symbolized both the simple orderliness and foreign grandeur of French administration.
