| Sesan River in the Morning |
The SE SAN River is one of the most important ecology systems amid the green forestry in the
northeast region of Stung Treng and Ratanak Kiri provinces. The river is
like shining diamonds and emeralds with white sand beaches while the clear
water along the river reflect the mountains and jungle even during the dry
season.
Forty (40) km. away from northern part of Banlung, the
capital of Ratanak Kiri, the Se San river is an all season river flowing east
to west with long, white sand beaches. Along the river, these numerous beaches
have many spots for bathing, swimming and fishing where both local and
international tourists can relax.
Cross
over the Se San River by boat and you see the Veon Sai commune. That is the
territory of several ethnic groups such as Khmer, Chinese, Kroeng, and Laotian,
all living there for many generations. The Chinese follow their own Chinese
traditional culture while the other ethic groups follow their own ancestral
identities. All communicate in Chinese, Hill Tribe, and Laotian as well as well
as the national language of Cambodia, Khmer. Most of them are farmers,
fishermen and local traders.
