Battambang Heritage Preservation Initiative Online

“What to see in Battambang? Everything, if one has the time. If one has not, everything should be done to get some. Battambang isn’t one of those towns one walks through guide-book in hand, on the look-out for the “listed” spots, where photography is a must. Battambang isn’t like that. A calm town, Battambang owes it's special something to very harmonious aspect.”

 

(Quote taken from: Kambuja Monthly Illustrated Review, Issue 5, August 15th,1965)
