Introducing Sen Monorom
The provincial capital of Mondulkiri, Sen Monorom is little more than an overgrown village. A charming community set in the spot where the famous hills meet, the centre of town has two lakes, leading some dreamers to call it ‘The Switzerland of Cambodia’. The area around Sen Monorom is peppered with minority villages and picturesque waterfalls, making it the ideal place to spend some time. Many of the Pnong people from nearby villages come to Sen Monorom to trade, and the distinctive baskets they carry on their backs makes them easy to distinguish from the immigrant lowlanders. Set at more than 800m, when the winds billow it’s notably cooler than the rest of Cambodia, so bring some warm clothing.
