Views of Tonle Sap from Phnom Krom

Continuing from Access to Tonle Sap.



About 2 km north of the access area to Tonle Sap lies what seemed to be the only hill for as far as the eyes could see.


I was told its name is Phnom Krom. Looking at a staircase leading up I decided to make a climb...








Looking behind halfway or so up the staircase...








End of staircase...


But there was still a distance to reach the summit.


However I was only allowed to climb just about halfway up...


This is because there is an ancient temple on top and foreigners like me must have an Angkor Wat pass to access.


Never mind that, I asked for some time to take in the views from this height.


Enough that I was able to see the vast lake of Tonle Sap in the background...
