Cambodia’s second most populous city and a popular tourist destination due to the many nearby ancient temples, Buddhist shrines and the infamous bamboo railway. It is also the capital city of the Battambang province. It is popular with tourists because of it’s blend of modern city, small-town friendliness and some well-preserved colonial architecture, which works together to give the town a unique charm. Battambang’s ever increasing variety on food and coffee is a refreshing change from more remote destinations in Cambodia, and has the potential to be as funky as Thailand’s Chiang Mai, minus the hordes of tourists. And yes, you can have your latte and your piccolo like you never left home.
La Villa is a haven for peace and tranquility, rich in art deco and antiques.
