Pheam Ek Village – Rice Paper Making Your first countryside experience takes you to Pheam Ek Village, a community well known for its traditional rice-paper production. Meet local families and observe how rice paste is prepared, steamed into thin sheets, and carefully placed on bamboo frames to dry naturally in the sun. The finished rice paper is commonly used to prepare Cambodian fresh and fried spring rolls. The area is also known for its coconut trees and locally grown produce.

Continue to the local Prohok Market near the Sangke River for a glimpse into everyday life in Battambang. Walk through a traditional market where local vendors sell fresh produce, household products, and prohok, Cambodia's distinctive fermented fish paste and an important ingredient in Khmer cuisine.

Bamboo Train Experience Experience one of Battambang's best-known attractions with a ride on the Bamboo Train. Travel along the railway on a small platform-style vehicle while enjoying views of the surrounding countryside. This unusual local experience has become one of the most memorable activities for visitors to Battambang.

Phnom Sampov, Killing Cave & Bat Cave Your final destination is Phnom Sampov, a limestone mountain with significant religious, cultural, and historical importance.
