Tour to 60 Road Street Outskirt City in Late Evening and Night
60 Road Street located outside from Siem Reap city. This places similar to Pub-Street but this place different because 60 Road Street not the place for tourists at all as this place local people go sightseeing in late evening and night to get the fresh air outside from city and It’s a glorious evening street market lining both sides of the road. It runs from evening around 6:00pm (maybe earlier) until well in the evening. The road starts with small fruit stalls with piles of fruit laying on plastic on the ground. Maybe some of the more exotic fruits (such as jack fruit) and lots of selling fried snakes, crickets, beetles, spiders, and other insects (popular for local people buy and eat) on trays balanced on the top of boxes, bins, anything really. But most is just at ground level.
After a bit the market changes character. It becomes a clothes and tat area. The stalls sell everything from Children toys, jeans to bags to shoes to bracelets to … well … just about anything really and further more along still it breaks again into food stalls. Grilled sausages, corn, barbecue stands. This is window shopping without windows.
You will see also people sitting on mats along the side of the road as they having picnic in the group of family or friends next to the play grounds for children playing like amusement Disneyland Park.
The reason for which so many local people decide to hang out in this precise area is the beautiful sunset sky or night it offers, as there is no building around to block the view.

Bird Sanctuary on Tonle Sap Lake at Prek Toal
The ‘bird sanctuary’ at the Prek Toal core area of the Tonle Sap Biosphere Reserve has been called “the single most important breeding ground in Southeast Asia for globally threatened large waterbirds.” The Biosphere covers 31,282 hectares at the northwest tip of the Tonle Sap Lake and plays host to species including Greater and Lesser Adjuncts, Black-headed Ibis, Painted Stork, Milky Stork, Spot-billed Pelican, Grey-Headed Fish Eagle and many more species. Of the three Biosphere core areas on the Tonle Sap Lake, Prek Toal is the most accessible from Siem Reap and the most popular with birdwatchers. The best time of year for viewing is the dry season when flocks of migratory birds congregate at Prek Toal. As the dry season progresses and the water recedes, the number of birds increases but the travel to some of the more important viewing areas becomes more difficult.
