Kbal Chhay Waterfall


Kbal Chhay Waterfall i located in Khan Prey Nup, about 15 kilometers north of down town Sihanuokville, Cambodia . To each the site from Sihanoukville, take National Road 4 toward Phnom Penh. About 7 kilometer outside of twon, there is a sign announcing the site. Turn left and go 9 kilometers along a trail. the water at Kblal Chhay comes from many sources along the mountain range, alothough only three of theose sources are viible. The wataerfall, which is 14 meters high, is at the point where those three sources join.
Kbal Chhay was discovered in 1960. Three years later, it was developed into a reservoir to supply clean water to the city if Sihanoukville. the reservoir construction, however, was interrupted due to civil war, and the site became a hide-out for the Khmer Rouge. in 1997, Kbla Chhay was marked for development, and a year later Kok An Company was awarded a contract to construct a road and develop the site.
