Kamping Pouy Bassin is located between two mountains Phnom Ku and Phnom Kamping Pouy about 35Km west of the Battambong City. You drive from Battambong City along National Road No. 5 about 7km and turn left to Heng Chhat Road and turn right to 1570 Road.
This gigantic civil engineering project was constructed by Khmer Rouge to irrigate the water from Battambong city during the raining season. Tragically, the construction of the Kamping Puoy Reservoir resulted in the deaths of tens thousands of people. Unlike the victims of S21 and Choeung Ek, most of the deaths on the Kamping Puoy project were caused by malnutrition, disease, overwork or mistreatment.
It has an area of 6,000m x 1,900m which can be stored water around 110,000,000 m3 of in the rainy season and it is a water source for agriculture in Battambang province which is the well known province in rice plantation and most delicious rice in Cambodia.
The location and views of this reservoir are wonderful, with a majestic size, surrounded by mountains where visitors can boat, fish and swim. visitors can also rest, eat and enjoy the fresh air. The water flows in all seasons through the two water gates on the dam.
Kamping Pouy is the favorite choose to relax during weekend or holiday for occupants of Pailin and Battambang province because of its natural place surrounded by mountain and big lake with full of Lotus blooms make a very beautiful view for release stress as most of Cambodian people like this kind of place very much. You can purchase lotus seeds to eat and they are scrumptious and taste a touch like sweet, uncooked peas.
We would like to recommend better not to visit Kamping Pouy during Cambodia big holiday such as Khmer New Year and Pchum Ben Day as it is the long holiday and most of business are closed and workers will returned from Phnom Penh City to their homeland to celebrate with their family. It will be crowded difficult which you will not enjoy the real natural view of Kamping Pouy Bassin.
