National Park "Preak Toul"
Tour code N' SR010, 1day / 1 night
More than a Bird Sanctuary; the village of Prek Toal is an interesting place to visit in its own right. Situated on the Sangkar River on the Opposite banks of the Tonle Sap From Siem Reap; this is a relatively prosperous fishing community with over a thousand house boats and land houses.
It takes one and a half hours by boat. Prek Toal has few tourists as most come on day trips to the Bird Sanctuary. Apart from the Environmental office where a few people stay overnight to watch the birds; there are no tourist facilities at all. This means the visitor can see a traditional Fishing village without the crowds!
