Kompong Chhnang is located at the heart of Cambodia. Its bordering Kampong Thom to the North, Kompong Cham to the East, Kompong Speu to the South and Pursat to the West. This province is not only at the fertile and almost ever-wet heart of Cambodia, but also just a 91km ride from Phnom Penh, so it's a quick jaunt up. Due to its location next to the Tonle Sap Lake Kompong Chhnang's population is predominantly in fishery and rice plantation involved. Especially the provincial capital Kompong Chhnang, which is an easygoing river port town that is worth a visit, focuses on fishery and therefore features a big fishery port. It is, easy to get to from Phnom Penh via national road number 5, passing by the former capital of Udong. Kompong Chhnang also gives you the option to take an air-con bus to get there (as it wasn't possible in near past). Most parts of this province are fertile alluvial soil reservoirs with plenty of fishes and endless rice plantations. There are no more forests remaining except in the Southwest of the country where the biggest coherent forest area of Southeast Asia begins, the massive and unexplored Cardamom Mountains. The provincial borderline in the Southwest resides on the hillside of the highest Mountain of Cambodia its name is Phnom Aoral with an altitude of 1813m.
