Exploring Southeast Asia’s largest lake, Tonlé Sap.
Back in the days of the glittering Angkor era, the Tonlé Sap lake and river, which branches off the Mekong river in today’s Cambodia, was to the Khmer empire, what the Nile river was to the Egyptians.
Divided into several communities, the lake inhabits around a hundred small villages floating on the Tonlé Sap.
Villagers can be found in their long sampans out in the day...Fishing and travelling from one place to another.
The fascination of a floating existence attracts many tourists to witness the unique lifestyle in the Tonle Sap villages.
