In the far northeast of the country lies the province of Ratanakiri.

Recent history of Ratanakiri

Rarely visited, this remote region is rich in natural beauty with cascading waterfalls and rivers traversing the lush forests. During the 1960s, Ratanakiri was the base for the infamous Khmer Rouge, and where Pol Pot spent much of his time.

The crystal clear waters of Boeng Yeak Loam crater lake, near Ban Lung, make for a refreshing dip and at sunset the sky is ablaze with colour.

Unique culture of Kreung villages

Take a river journey up the Ton Le San to the hidden Kreung villages famous for their traditional cemeteries, complete with carved effigies and unique burial rituals. The stilted male and female huts found here give you a glimpse of the fascinating courting practices of the tribe.

Laotian and Chinese communities can also be found in the area along with many minority tribes, making the region a melting pot of cultures.
