It is still relatively unspoiled because there has not been much investment in tourism, but for those who like to enjoy peaceful nature and stay away from crowded tourist places, Kampot is an extremely suitable place.

Popokvil Waterfall

Popokvil is a Waterfall located in Bokor National Park close to Kampot town in Cambodia. This Waterfall with a pool surrounded by beautiful scenery and pleasant weather makes it a popular destination for tourists visiting Kampot Province.

During summer, most of the water dries up, and you can find people camping near the rocks beside the Waterfall. You can hike to the base of the falls during all the seasons except the rainy season when the water flow is at the highest. In this walking trail, if you are lucky, you can also spot some exciting wildlife, such as giant red squirrels and macaques.

Bat Cave

Bat Cave is located in Phnom Sampeau, near Battambang in Cambodia. It is famous for the emergence of millions of the Asian wrinkle-lipped bats every evening for their nocturnal hunting. The bats return next day in the early hours of the morning before the sun rises. It’s a spectacular show in the evening worth watching if you are traveling in Northern Cambodia. You can combine visiting Bat Cave with other attractions in Phnom Sampeau, for an excellent day-trip from Battambang.

The Bat Cave shows a fantastic spectacle at around 5 PM each day. Millions of bats burst out of the caves for their hunt in all directions as the dusk sets in every day. Their movement looks like a black stream in the sky against vibrant colours of the sunset in the backdrop as they disperse in the countryside near Tonle Sap. This incredible sight of vibrating buzz of the bats lasts for more than 30 minutes because of their population.
