Tonlé Sap, also known as Phnom Penh Lake, is the largest freshwater lake in Southeast Asia. It is connected to the water by water. Phnom Penh Lake. The Tonle Sap River connects to the Mekong River, which flows through Phnom Penh. Several floating villages dot the lake, nicknamed "Vietnamese Floating Villages" because of the large number of Vietnamese refugees who inhabited it. You can take a boat tour on the lake to visit these floating villages and see houses, churches, schools and other buildings on the water. In the evening, you can also appreciate the sunset over the lake, which is different from that at Angkor Wat. Tonlé Saphas a very distinct seasonality. The dry season runs from December to April, when the average water depth is one meter. The lake's surface area is several times smaller than during the rainy season, but the climate is milder during this period, making it suitable for sightseeing. It takes about a half-hour drive from downtown Siem Reap to Tonlé Sap. Upon reaching the lakeside pier, you'll see numerous tour boats soliciting business. Due to the different locations of the floating villages on the lake, boat tour fees vary, generally around US$15-20. It's worth discussing your trip with the boatman in advance to determine which floating village you'd like to visit and the price. Alternatively, specialized boat companies, such as Tara Boat, offer half-day tours, sunset cruises, and even tours of multiple floating villages.
