Riding Route in Cambodia Part 2 

From Thailand last stop at Chong Chom, I enter into Cambodia to Siam Reap and from there on I practically just chilled most of my time in Cambodia. A small country that is not much developed for tourism makes it hard to explore beyond the banana pancake route. Even the locals rarely go around it seams.

Since I had did most of the exploring the last time ... this slow journey back was mainly to burn time ... relax and drift along with the wind.

(Entry From Thailand) Chong Chom -> O’Smach -> Siam Reap -> Phnom Penh -> Naek Leong -> Krong Kracheh -> Phnom Penh -> Battambang -> Pailin -> Chantaburi (Exit into Thailand)

Things of Interest along the route :

Naek Leong Bridge & Little Town

I heard there was a grand bridge crossing the Mekong river ... in fact most of the grand bridge crossing the Mekong river was usuallly a border crossing bridge which motorbike are banned from going over. So this was one of the few beautiful bridge crossing the Mekong River. A stop at the peak of the bridge gives a wonderful view of serene Cambodia countryside town

The Outer Area of Phnom Penh

Naturally after going to Phnom Penh so many times ... it was time to use Bluey to go beyond the city tuk tuk fringe ... needless today it was quite interesting such as day trip to the Island in the center of Mekong River Koh Dach, or the Oudong Temple on top Traop Mountain

Krong Kracheh (Kratie & the Mekong Dolphins)

The freshwater dolphin of Mekong River .... it was a nice town as well for wasting time and watching the sun set. Also a discovery of a dirt bike trail requiring a wooden boat crossing with Bluey across the Mekong river was just a nice mini adventure 

Pailin – the Gemstone and Casino town

This unknown Gem of Pailin ... so quiet ... peaceful and yet filled with numerous casino frequented only by the regulars from across the border that almost everyone in the casino knows each other.
