Kampong Chhnang Province, Administrative province in central Cambodia
Kampong Chhnang Province stretches across 5,521 square kilometers of land, encompassing eight districts and containing numerous waterways connected to the Tonle Sap River.
The province received its formal administrative status in 1907 during the French colonial period, when infrastructure developments transformed the region into a significant trading center.
Local women maintain traditional pottery production methods in villages near Tonle Sap Lake, creating vessels and cookware distributed throughout the region by water transportation.
The province connects to Phnom Penh through National Road 5, with regular bus services operating between the capital and Kampong Chhnang city.
The name Kampong Chhnang translates to Port of Pottery, reflecting the region's centuries-old ceramic manufacturing tradition that continues in present times.
