Upon arrival, Sophors will explain about this temple’s past and the beautiful paintings on its walls. These pictures are like a colorful history book, telling the story of the birth, death, and reborn of Buddha.
Inside, a unique spot awaits - a sacred space where the monks conduct water blessings.
After exploring the temple for 30-45 minutes, our journey continues by traveling further into the hinterlands of Phnom Penh.

The admission fee for Silk Island is included.
Stepping onto the island, we’ll unveil the secrets of silk weaving. Our destination? A captivating Silk Weaving Farm where nature and craftsmanship unite. Here, we’ll meet a knowledgeable guide who’ll unravel the silk’s journey from growth to weaving. It’s a chance to witness the artistry behind this local craft.
