Overview
Phnom Krom Marshland is our highly recommended place for a few hours bird watching in Siem Reap. It is located about 10km south of the town center. This open marshland with paddy fields, ponds, bushes, and grassland, stretches out at the edge of the Great Tonle Sap Lake. It is a great place to find many common bird species, including water birds and waders. We aim to see around 40 bird species on a half-day birding trip near Siem Reap, which can be scheduled for the morning or afternoon
