Peaceful at the border in Anlong Veng

The countryside in the north of Cambodia is very pretty. Add in this man-made lake and enjoy animals going on with their peaceful business in the setting sun.

There is more modern history in this small border town of Anlong Veng than you would expect. I have visited this place several times to see and learn.

But I always take some time to contemplate and enjoy the outlook by this lake.

Not so peaceful history
Anlong Veng in Oddar Meanchey Province is a typical small town in Northern Cambodia. It is close to the mountain ridge marking the border to Thailand’s Isaan region.

The artificial lake was constructed by the KR cadre Ta Mok to regulate the local river to reduce flooding. And making a tremendous view from his villa complex northwest of the lake. Pol Pot was said to spend a lot of time there during the later years of his civil wars before and after the peace accords. There are work going on to make the house complex into a museum of KR activities and destructive time ruling the country.

Fishing in the warm colours of the afternoon sun

Solitude and practical use of this man-made lake north of Anlong Veng. What a contrast and perspective from the last decades of history in this area. But still a crossroad border town worth a visit.

Sunset fishing and grazing
Anlong Veng in Oddar Meanchey Province is a typical small town in Northern Cambodia, close to the natural ridge marking the border to Thailand’s Isaan region.

The countryside in the north of Cambodia is very pretty in itself. Add in a lake, some people and animal going on with their peaceful business in the setting sun. It turns incredible beauty.
