Phnom Penh

Koh Dach (Silk Island)

Silk Island, Koh Dach, is just a short distance from Phnom Penh by boat. This quiet island in the Mekong is famed for its Silk work, Spinning, Dyeing, and Weaving. There are also Potters and Wood Carvers in this small community. This is a nice city break that makes a good day trip. Handicrafts can be purchased directly from those who made them, then settle in for a delicious lunch.
