Itinerary

Mekong Silk Island 099

3 hours Admission included

Starting from 8:00am/12pm, Visit Silk Island, home to a silk weaving village and silk center – to see the silk making process from beginning to end, a traditional craft in Siem Reap. Locals sit at their looms, showing the intricate process still done by hand to this day.

See the traditional-style local stilt houses where the silk weavers spend their days in the cool land under the homes making simple but delicate silk scarves and skirts.

We visit Koh Dach Pagoda, a bright yellow temple where we can see a variety of the island’s Water Festival boats that were designed for battle more than 1,000 years ago. If we have ample time, we stop at the nearby beach before heading back to the hotel.
