Mat weaving CAMBODIA UNCOVERED

See the real Cambodia - village life

 

Cambodian village visits

When on tour with Souen, you will visit various villages. You will get a chance to see how Khmer live - their houses, their schools, their temples. You will notice the lack of infrastructure with few villages throughout Cambodia having electricity, running water or latrines

Cambodia Uncovered caters for small numbers of people (maximum 4) so you can visit villages and 'blend' in without being too intrusive

Souen will explain about the trees and plants that were used during Pol Pot regime and those that are used in traditional medicine. He may show you how rice is ground into flour or how rice wine is distilled. He can explain the lengthy process of growing reeds, harvesting, drying, dyeing and then weaving mats

You'll get an eyewitness view of how the Khmer live. You may see palm juice being harvested, silk being prepared, dyed then woven and clay pots being made

If you take a boat trip down the Mekhong you will also see village life from the boat - an eyeopener into the life of those living on the mighty river
