Introducing Sisophon
Strategically situated at northwest Cambodia’s great crossroads, the intersection of NH5 and NH6, Sisophon (often called Svay by locals) makes a convenient first stop in Cambodia if you’re coming from Poipet. It’s also a good base for exploring the Angkorian temples of Banteay Chhmar and Banteay Top, about 50km north of town, and Ang Trapeng Thmor Reserve, a bird sanctuary 56km (1½ to two hours by car) to the northeast.
