We visited Kampong Trach resort, Kampot province which consists of the beautiful natural resources that attract tourist for sight-seeing. While we crossed the border, we visited Khu Van Hoa Thach Dong Cave in Cambodian Vietnamese border. The Koh Tral City Tour, we visited Khu Du Uch Suot Tranch resort.
