It is very nice bamboo bridge on Mekong River and it is very nice place to walk across the Mekong from the city Kampong Cham to island Koh Pen and to Koh Pen Beach. It si good time in late afternoon around 4 PM until sunsets and an other can relax at Koh Pen Beach to swim on Mekong. But the bamboo bridge can visit from January to July every year.
