Trip to Kirirom National Park

Vendor Area

Vendor area of Kirirrom Park There are few signs in the national park, and those that do exist are only in Khmer so it is not easy to get around unless you speak Khmer and are able to ask many times where you are and where different sites are. The center of traffic in the park is this vendor area, a sort of crossroads.

A vendor in the park As we tried to find out directions to various sites within the park, we bought some snacks from this woman: rice, jackfruit, and coconut wrapped in a banana leaf and roasted on the little grill to her left. The large green objects on the platform are jackfruit.

A stuffed goat and sun bear The development of the vendor area is underway, and one of its future attractions will be this display with a stuffed mountain goat and a sun bear, one of two species of bear within the park. The case is barely big enough for one of the animals, and they are already starting to disintegrate because the case is not sealed.
