King's Residence Tourism

King's Residence in Kampong Cham is a historical site located in the charming provincial town of Kampong Cham, Cambodia. Situated on the banks of the Mekong River, the residence is a place of significant cultural heritage. While not a king's palace, the name likely derives from a notable figure or a person of importance historically associated with this residence. The architecture of the building combines both French colonial and traditional Khmer designs, reflecting the country's colonial past and indigenous culture. Kampong Cham itself is known for its laid-back atmosphere and colonial buildings. The town provides a glimpse into the local life of Cambodians with its bustling markets, riverside activities, and friendly inhabitants. While specific details about the actual King's Residence are limited, visitors to Kampong Cham often visit the site along with the other attractions such as the iconic bamboo bridge (seasonal) and Wat Nokor—an 11th-century Mahayana Buddhist shrine. The area around King's Residence is picturesque, offering serene views of the Mekong and a chance to experience the local culture and history.
