Phnom Kulen holds profound symbolic significance for Cambodia as the birthplace of the ancient Khmer Empire. It was here, in 802 CE, that King Jayavarman II declared independence from Java, marking a pivotal moment in the region’s history. Following this declaration, he introduced the Devaraja cult, a linga cult that formalized the divine status of the king, around 804 CE.
Recognized as a holy mountain, Phnom Kulen is of particular religious significance to both Hindus and Buddhists, who frequently visit the site for pilgrimage. Near the waterfalls, there is Preah Ang Thom, a 16th-century Buddhist monastery, renowned for housing the largest reclining Buddha in the country.

Kompong Phluk
Kampong Phluk is a commune situated in the Prasat Bakong District of Siem Reap Province, Cambodia. Its name translates to "Harbor of the Tusks." The local community primarily relies on fishing, particularly for shrimp, especially during the wet season from May to October.
To adapt to the fluctuations in water levels between the wet and dry seasons, many structures within the commune are built on stilts, with heights varying between 6 meters and 9 meters.
In the dry season, from November to April, the river's water level decreases, leading many residents to engage in agriculture to enhance their income. Additionally, tourism, which began to develop in the village around a decade ago, is increasingly becoming an integral component of the local economy.
As of 2019, Kampong Phluk is home to 911 families, comprising a total population of 3,707. The commune encompasses three villages: Tnaot Kambot, Dey Krahom, and Kok Kdol.
