Chong Khneas is the nearest village to Siem Reap, located at a distance of approximately 16 km. The village dwells with stilted and floating houses which keeps moving according to the level of water.<\/p>\n

If you want to stay longer, you can dine at the local Korean restaurants and shop local artifacts from the floating markets.<\/p>\n
