The Kep Revival

Do you have a Cambodian trip report you want to share? Post it here, and feel free to link to your blog if it's a travel blog for Cambodia, South East Asia, or anywhere really. You can ask and answer questions about travel advice in Cambodia or just share your pictures and videos with us. Most people who live in or visit Cambodia have also checked out nearby countries like Vietnam, Thailand, Laos, Myanmar, Malaysia, Indonesia and the Philippines, and you can get to most of these countries by traveling overland, so put any travel plans, reviews or questions here. Discussions about dirt bike trails in here as well.

A new two-story crab market is set to build on the reclaimed land, with construction likely commencing next year. All the sellers are expected to relocate to this modern facility, while the former market area undergoes a transformation into a restaurant area and plaza.

The start of the new fancy road down to Angkoul - proper kerbs and big drain pipes. Trouble is apart from 3 small fishing village houses nobody lives there and the land is all barren - signs of some being fenced off however.
