Kampot, kep, Ha Tien
Just a short report on my trip from Sihanok to the border town of Ha Tien.
Because I need to exit cambodia after staying for 30 days, and since i was in sihanoukville, so i decided to exit to Ha Tien which is part of vietnam and at the border between Cambodia and Vietnam. It was my first trip to Ha Tien. This journey will take about 5 to 6 hrs. From Sihanoukville, i went to the central bus station and book a bus at usd15 to Ha Tien. The bus came on time at 12.30pm and after picking me up, the bus proceed to another place to pick up passengers before proceeding the journey. Inside the bus, all angmos except me, the only asian. Along the way, the bus did stop for peeing. The first stop was in kampot, about 2.5hrs from sihanok. Kampot is quite a nice cosy town by the river. Mostly angmos here. Theres many guest house here. Theres pubs here too. However i dont know anything about nightlife here as ive not stayed here but i believe there should be ladies canvassing at those pubs. After dropping those angmos passengers here in kampot, we all alight from this bus and waited for about 25mins for another van to pick us up. We pass the town of kep. The journey from kampot to kap is about 40mins. Kep is a nice very simple seaside town thats very famous for their flower crabs. Just a few days before this trip. I did rode my rental motorcycle all the way from Sihanoukville to kep. I stayed one night in kep. It took me 3.5 hrs to ride from Sihanokville to kep using the google map to guide me. It was my maiden trip then. In kep, theres a very famous crab market by the seaside. I bought half kilo of medium size flower crab at usd3.50 and ask the people to cook for me chilli pepper crab and the cooking charge is only usd1, vv cheap. The rice cost me 1000 riels per packet. It was delicious. Prawns are cheap here too at only usd7 per kilo. I stayed in a nearby guesthse at only usd20 a night. Kep is just a very simple town and theres no night life here, completely zero. For some night life, must go kampot. From kep to the border is about 40 mins. At the border, there are casinos and the biggest is Ha Tien Vegas. At the border, the driver will collect our passports and he will chop it at the immigration counter. All of us need to alight and walk pass the cambodia immigration. And then ftom here we will continue to walk to the vietnam immigration. Over here at the counter, the immigration officer will handover to us our passport. After this we got on board another different van who will then drive us to a popular town by the river with many seafood stalls around. This is where people take ferry 3.5hrs to the island casino resort of PHU QUOC. In Ha tien, by this river, i stayed in a very nice clean aircon guesthse at only usd12 a night. ----------------------------------------------- Photos i took at kep crab beach market This lady below, clean, prepare and cook the crab for me at only usd1 Some photos of the kep crab beach market Last edited by sohbuckkong; 21-03-2019 at 02:19 PM. |

In Ha Tien its very difficult to see money changer around but today i manage to change money from usd to viet dong at a small local bank. Its from here by this river that one can take a 3.5hrs ferry ride at about 200,000 dong to the island of Phu Quoc and theres a big casino resort here which i read just opened in 2017. Some photos of Ha Tien i took. This photo at night and day is very different, at night the vendors will set up their seafood stalls at this pavements by the river. At night, this whole stretch of pavements is transformed into all these seafood stalls, so its quite tough for these vendors as they need to keep and clear their stall everyday. Below is the casino at the border, this Ha Tien Vegas casino is at Cambodia territory. Last edited by sohbuckkong; 21-03-2019 at 03:06 PM. |

Sihanouk square with all those pubs here was already demolished and a very few of them hv shifted their operation at a very ulu place called the Youth Centre and the business here is very poor. Nightlife activities in sihanok is now very poor but its still quite easy to find cheap local wls for fj both for st and on. As usual, i have all my free meals at the casinos. The best free food served is on the 2nd floor of Xihu hotel, the casino operator here is called XI GANG, over here they serve very nice sichuan cuisine, most of the time hv prawns, steam fish, vegetables etc....all a person need to do is gamble at their casinos, they have baccarat, niu niu and machine roulette. The best is play niu niu, minimum stake usd10 as its a very drawish game. |

In sihanoukville, i spent most of my time gambling. In the evenings, i will ride the motorcycle around to street 802 (known as omui street, blue mountain, vietnam street and china street), victory hill, karaoke street, chicken farms at the port , youth centre etc. When i hv the urge, i will book those wls from these redlight areas. Im never bored in sihanoukville because theres casinos, wls, cheap motorcycle rental, free food, free drinks and free lodgings. Sihanoukville casinos hv a game called NGAU HAM or NIU NIU, almost all china gamblers prefer playing this game. Niu niu is the best game to play because it has no house advantage when we place our bets on 1 pay 1. Without house advantage, its no guarantee that we will lose to casinos. |
