For me, mr.hotsia, my latest trip to Kampong Cham was a truly memorable experience because the Kampong Cham market by the Mekong River is full of life and a variety of food. Especially the fruit shakes sold abundantly along the roadside stalls and fresh markets. Especially in the hot afternoon, sipping these cold drinks made from fresh fruits is a small but wonderful happiness.
