One of the largest communities on the Tonle Sap, Kompong Khleng is more of a town than the other villages, and comes complet with several ornate pagoda. As in Kompong Pluk, most of the allow for a dramatic change in water level. Few tourists visit here compared with the floating villages closer to Siem Reap, but that might be a reason to visit in itself. There is only a small floating community on the lake it self, but the stelted town is an interesting place to browse for an hour or two . A boat trip around the town and out to the lake is about US$20 for a couple of hours. It is not that difficult to reach from Siem Reap thank to an all-weather road via the junction town of Dam Dek, but the trip will cost about US$40 return by taxi.
