Zip Line Cafe at Lomhae Dong Prek in Kampot

Zip Line Cafe at Lomhae Dong Prek in Kampot, Cambodia (also referred to as Lomhae Dorn Prek Restaurant) seamlessly blends thrilling adventure with riverside charm to create an unforgettable escape by the water. Situated right by the Kampot River and adjacent to River Park’s action‑packed waterpark, this café offers both serenity and excitement.

Perched on the riverbank, the café provides a laid‑back atmosphere perfect for sipping on Khmer or Western fare after—or before—experiencing adventure across the water. Guests can glide over the river via a zip-line ride—returning safely to the café—kayak along the gentle flow, or even rent jet skis for a more adrenaline-fueled spin ($10 for the zip-line, $5 for all-day kayaking, or $120/hour for jet skiing). The café’s dual culinary offerings make it ideal for every palate, featuring traditional Khmer dishes and familiar Western options to suit both locals and international visitors.

Its location, just across the river from River Park with its giant slide, paddle boats, and water games, means that thrill-seekers and families alike can easily hop between relaxing café moments and energetic fun. While things may feel adventurous on the river, the café ensures comfort and hospitality—making it a balanced getaway destination.

The zip-line experience here is both accessible and exciting: a brief zip over the water delivers just the right rush without overwhelming those new to the sport. Kayaking offers a mellow alternative, allowing guests to explore the calm expanse of the Kampot River at their own pace. The café’s riverside perch also means you can enjoy beautiful views while lounging with a drink or a bite—an excellent vantage point for both peace and people-watching.

Whether you’re looking for a playful afternoon on the water, a scenic riverside meal, or combining both, the new Zip Line Cafe at Lomhae Dong Prek stands out as a charming and well-rounded addition to Kampot’s growing hospitality landscape.

Also called Ancestor’s’ Day, Pchum Ben is, according to legend, a time where spirits of deceased relatives and ancestors walk the earth. Running for 15 days, usually towards the end of September or October, the fifteenth day of the tenth month of the Khmer Calendar marks one of the most traditional and colourful festivals in Cambodia with people dressing up in traditional clothing to visit their local pagodas with food and offerings and pay respect to their ancestors.

Pchum Ben can also be translated to ‘gathering together to make offerings’, and that’s exactly what families do when they visit the pagodas.

Enjoy your wonderful family reunion!

The Water Festival this year falls on November 7-9. But with Cambodia set to host the ASEAN summit and related meetings in the same week this month, the festival are not being celebrated in Phnom Penh, though some provinces have been holding celebrations since October.

Known locally as Bon Om Touk, the festival takes place in late October or early November to mark the end of the monsoon season as well as the change in flow of the Tonle Sap River.

The second day of the festival aligns with the date of the full moon on the Khmer lunar calendar month of Katdoek (or Kartika in Sanskrit), which is said to be when the long-cycle rice crop is ready for harvest.

The festival usually features dragon longboat races on its first day. Royal boat races have been held in Cambodia since at least the time of King Jayavarman VII to celebrate the victory of the Khmer navy over Cham invaders from the Champa kingdom in a large boat battle on the Tonle Sap Lake.

During the Longvek period of the 16th and 17th centuries, King Ang Chan I appointed Ponhea Yat as the “earth-guardian” in Kampuchea Krom’s Bassac district and he organised the navy into three groups to defend the region from invasion by the Da Viet kingdom under ruler Mac Dang Dung.

Khmer New Year, also known as “Choul Chnam Thmey,” meaning entering the new year, is a national holiday hosted by Cambodians annually. It is the season when Cambodians have free time from harvesting rice and other agricultural commodities. The event is Cambodia’s largest event and lasts three days, on the 13th, 14th, or 15th of April (in a specific year, it could be on the 14th to 16th of April).

Cambodian New Year is celebrated just like other Asian New Year Festivals that blend history with religious practices, emphasizing and commemorating the seniors and ancestors. While there are merriments with traditional meals and beverages, the three days are packed with Buddhist compliance centered on performing gratitude, sending offerings to deceased family members, and contributing to those in need. The following preparations are exclusively made for the Khmer New Year.

Nestled in the scenic countryside of Kampot Province, Phnom Chhngok Cave Temple offers an enchanting blend of natural wonder and ancient spirituality. This mystical limestone cave, set within a peaceful rural landscape about 12 kilometers northeast of Kampot town, is not only a geological marvel but also home to a pre-Angkorian brick temple dating back to the 7th century. As you approach the site, you’ll pass through quiet villages and rice fields before reaching the stairs that lead up the hill to the cave entrance. Inside, the cave opens into a large, shadowy chamber with dramatic stalactites and stalagmites that have formed over millions of years, some of which resemble animals and mythical creatures. The air is cool and still, and shafts of sunlight occasionally pierce through the rock, creating an otherworldly atmosphere. At the heart of the cave stands the small but remarkable brick temple dedicated to Shiva, remarkably well-preserved and considered one of the oldest Hindu sanctuaries in Cambodia. Local guides, often young villagers, are available to share legends and assist with navigating deeper sections of the cave. Some routes even lead out through narrow limestone tunnels for the adventurous. Phnom Chhngok is more than a destination—it’s an experience that combines history, mystery, and the raw beauty of nature. Whether you’re a history enthusiast, a spiritual seeker, or simply someone in search of a unique day trip in Kampot, this hidden gem offers a peaceful and unforgettable escape from the ordinary. Don’t forget to wear good walking shoes and bring a flashlight for exploring the deeper corners of the cave. A visit to Phnom Chhngok is a journey back in time—one that echoes with the stories of Cambodia’s ancient past.
