About Kampot Province
Kampot is a province in southwest Cambodia, edging onto the Gulf of Thailand. In the west, the jungle of Preah Monivong (aka Bokor) National Park in the misty Elephant Mountains is home to Bokor Hill Station, a 1920s French ghost town. On the banks of the Teuk Chhou River, the province's sleepy capital, Kampot, is known for its French colonial architecture.
