Battambang to Poipet

Peace be upon you all. Time to get back to the Cambodia-Thailand trip stories.


Thursday morning 29th November 2018. Our next mode of transport, a land cruiser arrived at our hotel at 8.30.


It is a local taxi for long distance drive. We wanted to get to the city of Poipet 115 km to the north-west of Battambang.


We entered Battambang city first as the driver need to run an errand...





Soon we were on our way out...











At this juncture I believe we arrived at the city of Sisophon. 


It was almost 10.30 but yet we have travelled only 70 km or so.


The condition of the road and traffic tends to constrict vehicles to a speed of 30 to 70 kmh most of the time.





The road condition is much better after Sisophon as we entered the main road which connects all to way to Siem Reap on to Phnom Penh albeit going the opposite way.




















We entered the city of Poipet at around 11.25 am.











From here we can cross the national border to Thailand...
