Itinerary
It was only a 1 night trip to Toul Ta Ek/ Battambang. We traveled all the places we could in Day2 and drove back to Phnom Penh. Hope we could stay longer next time.
Day1: From Phnom Penh to Hotel *4.5-5 hrs drive*
Day2:
π¦ Bat Cave β I Missed the Show (I went there too early, better go there around 4-5 PM to see the bats)
π Ek Phnom Pagoda β Peaceful Escape
π» Banan Temple β Stairway to... Maybe Halfway? π (I only made it halfway up before my legs said, "Nope, weβre done here." π If youβre traveling with elderly family or just not feeling a hardcore climb, not a recommended place)
And then went back into town a little desert and drove back to Phnom Penh.
π¨ Accommodation: Sky Palace Boutique, it is affordable only 16$/night. But you cannot expect too much from a 16$ hotel. It is not too bad or too good in the middle.
π΄ Food Recommendations: In my second and third photos. It was the best of my Toul Ta Ek/ Battambang trip.
π Tips
Chicken Rice Shop - I do not know the shop name. What we did
1οΈβ£ Sent telegram msg to the shop. Phone number in the green sign board of my photo. (But the owner replied after we left the place) π So if you plan to ask location from telegram, send msg early. The shop open unttil noon or 2.00PM and crowded so they are busy to reply the message.
2οΈβ£ Use google translate English to Khmer and then type Chicken Rice and you will get Chicken Rice in Khmer. Copy and paste it to google/chrome. The first one from the list is this shop and you may see if it matches or not with the shop front photo of mine.
