  1. Kampot is a sleepy place.

    Unlike in the capital, you should have no worries walking in the street in Kampot. The only thing that might run you over is a lone durian merchant.

  2. For Sale! Needs work...

    Even though crumbling French colonial shop houses abound in Kampot, there is apparently a huge real estate bubble going on in this sleepy riverside town.

  3. The French colonial shophouses of Kampot

    Don't worry about locking your bicycle up in the sleepy riverside town of Kampot. But do check out the Epic Arts Cafe, a small NGO-run place that employs local people with disabilities.

  4. Bokor Hill Station Hotel

    Often enveloped in a cloak of eerie fog, the Bokor Hill Station (Kampot, Cambodia) was a colonial retreat built by the French in the early 1920s. Later, it was used as a base for the Khmer Rouge, and today tourists come to visit a French colonial ghost town.

    Amongst a smattering of ruins, a church emerges from the fog (the Bokor Hill Station–Kampot, Cambodia).

    Behind the altar, sermons come in the form of grafitti (the Bokor Hill Station–Kampot, Cambodia).

  9. Broken window

    The decay of Bokor's hotel has its own, distinct beauty (the Bokor Hill Station–Kampot, Cambodia).

    Inside the abandoned hotel, graffiti abounds–much of it scraped from the colorful lichen and moss that cover the walls (the Bokor Hill Station–Kampot, Cambodia).
