It served as the perfect shelter for the bats and was used as a site for execution. During the Khmer Rouge in the period 1975 to 1979, the mountain of Phnom Sampov and its caves were used to accumulate the war victims who were later executed. The caves are now a reminder of the dark history and have multiple important religious temples. Cambodians believe in using joy as a tool to overcome the sorrow of the post and hence people visit this place to admire the beauty of the bats painting the sky.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Must Read:<\/strong> <a class=\"mustread-link\" href=\"https:\/\/traveltriangle.com\/blog\/places-to-visit-in-cambodia\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Places To Visit In Cambodia<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Battambang Bat Caves Facts<\/h2>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-737182\" src=\"https:\/\/img.traveltriangle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Battambang-Bat-Caves-Facts.jpg\" alt=\"Limestone formations inside Battambang Bat Caves Cambodia\" width=\"700\" height=\"400\" \/><\/div>\n<p><a class=\"imagesource-link\" href=\"https:\/\/commons.wikimedia.org\/wiki\/File:Bat_Cave_Formations.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Image Credit: Rich Brooks for Wikimedia Commons<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Here are some interesting facts which will leave you amazed and will make your trip more insightful:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The Battambang Bat Caves are home to millions of bats.

The bats wake up in the evening and head out at around 5:30 PM. All the tourists bring their chairs and sit to witness the streak of bats across the golden hour sky. Sometimes the bats come out 15 or 30 minutes late due to rain or sudden weather changes. These nocturnal creatures keep coming out of the cave for more than half an hour and showcase the natural ecosystem of the area. You can visit the Battambang Bat Caves and the mountain in the late afternoon and enjoy the nearby attractions as well.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Suggested Read:<\/strong> <a class=\"mustread-link\" href=\"https:\/\/traveltriangle.com\/blog\/hotels-in-cambodia\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Hotels In Cambodia<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Battambang Bat Caves Price<\/h2>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-737201\" src=\"https:\/\/img.traveltriangle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Battambang-Bat-Caves-Price.jpg\" alt=\"The entry to the mountains leads to multiple caves and temples\" width=\"700\" height=\"400\" \/><\/div>\n<p><a class=\"imagesource-link\" href=\"https:\/\/commons.wikimedia.org\/wiki\/File:The_bat_cave-_they_should_start_flying_out_now_%2814429484776%29.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Image Credit: shankar s. for Wikimedia Commons<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The entry to the mountains leads to multiple caves and temples each with a historical background; the entrance into these areas cost me a meagre USD 3.

A trip to Battambang would leave you captivated. If you are visiting the Battambang Bat Caves, here are some of the nearby attractions which you must visit as well:<\/p>\n<h3>1. Killing Cave<\/h3>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-737221\" src=\"https:\/\/img.traveltriangle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Killing-Cave.jpg\" alt=\"Killing Cave of Phnom Sampov located near Battambang Bat Caves. \" width=\"700\" height=\"400\" \/><\/div>\n<p><a class=\"imagesource-link\" href=\"https:\/\/upload.wikimedia.org\/wikipedia\/commons\/thumb\/6\/66\/Cave_on_Phnom_Sampeau_2.jpg\/2560px-Cave_on_Phnom_Sampeau_2.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Image Credit: Christophe95 for Wikimedia Commons<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Located at the top of the same mountain Phnom Sampov, you can combine both cave trips on the same day. Killing caves are at the top of the hill, whereas bat caves are at the base. You can hike to the top or hop into a tuk-tuk to reach there. The journey of 10 to 15 minutes will bring you to the magnificent killing caves. Another historical site, this cave, was also used by the Khmer Rouge for the execution of war victims. As you enter you will see a large reclining Buddha statue with bones and skulls in a glass cabinet. The cave is now a shrine and mourns the loss of the ones who lost their lives.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Suggested Read:<\/strong> <a class=\"mustread-link\" href=\"https:\/\/traveltriangle.com\/blog\/island-hopping-in-cambodia\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Island Hopping In Cambodia<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>2.

Also known as norry, it essentially has a platform made of bamboo and a motor powering the motion. You can explore Cambodia on this not-so-fast Norry for 20 minutes with no seatbelts and hassles. There are two trains: old and new. The new bamboo train rides are under a private company and will offer you well-maintained tracks and a better experience. On the old bamboo trains, you would experience authentic Cambodia, which is equally enjoyable.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Wat Ek Phnom<\/h3>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-737232\" src=\"https:\/\/img.traveltriangle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Wat-Ek-Phnom.jpg\" alt=\"Wat Ek Phnom, a Hindu temple near Battambang Bat Caves Cambodia.\" width=\"700\" height=\"400\" \/><\/div>\n<p><a class=\"imagesource-link\" href=\"https:\/\/upload.wikimedia.org\/wikipedia\/commons\/3\/38\/Ek_Phnom3.JPG\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Image Credit: Stefan Fussan for Wikimedia Commons<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Located 25 km to the north of Battambang Bat Caves, Wat Ek Phnom is just a 45-minute tuk-tuk ride away. Built during the 11th century under King Suryavarman I, this temple was earlier for Hindu devotees and is now a Buddhist shrine. This Angkorian temple is now mostly in ruins, a walk through the large blocks would take you back in time. With a main temple area and surrounding towers, the temple walls are adorned with intricate carvings depicting tales of Hindu mythology. Beside the temple, the Sangkae pond is filled with colourful lilies and a 28-etre Buddha temple with 18 bodhi trees paints a beautiful scene.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Suggested Read:<\/strong> <a class=\"mustread-link\" href=\"https:\/\/traveltriangle.com\/blog\/cambodia-visa-for-indians\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Cambodia Visa For Indians<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>How To Reach Battambang Bat Caves, Cambodia<\/h2>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-738164 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/img.traveltriangle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Phnom_Penh_bus_01.jpg\" alt=\"There are several options available to reach the Battambang Bat Caves f\" width=\"700\" height=\"400\" \/><\/div>\n<p><a class=\"imagesource-link\" href=\"https:\/\/commons.wikimedia.org\/wiki\/File:Phnom_Penh_bus_01.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Image Credit: Ilya Plekhanov for Wikimedia Commons<\/a><br \/>\nBattambang Bat Caves is located 12 km to the southwest of the Battambang city centre.
