Cycle to the traditional silk weaving workshop We ride on the cycle track alongside the river, across the villages, temples and plantations. Throughout this cycling journey we also have a chance to connect with a local artisan when we visit the traditional silk weaving workshop and experience with friendly local people, kinds and enjoy tropical fruit and water. Silk Island at Twilight and back to Phnom Penh We continued our bike ride through villages, local markets and got another ferry crossing the Mekong river to silk island. It was a beautiful island where you'll experience the local farmland like ginger and corn as long as we visit the Buddha temple to learn more about religion in Cambodia before we explore that island until the sun goes down. A final, we get other ferry again and get on our tuk tuk back to hotel or drop you off at touristic area.
