The Tonle Sap Lake is one of the natural wonders of the world. Due to the cycle of annual flood water, the Great Lake serves as a main source of freshwater fish and as the foundations of the Great Angkor Empire dating from some 1000 years. The floating houses and fishing villages along its banks are main tourist attractions. The Tonle Sap area also has a wealth of bird life for keen bird-watchers.

Since the most ancient times, fishermen have lived on the Great Lake in a perfect balance with nature, settling stilted villages along the shores or gathering in floating villages to go with the flow.
