Kompompluk is a small "floating" village about 30km from Siem Reap. Andrew and I rode out there early one morning and while I was a little hesitant at first, it did not disappoint. I have been to floating markets in Thailand, but this actually was a village on stilts. Most of the houses, further out into the lake, had stilts about 10m high. It was pretty incredible. As December is approaching the dry season, the water was still pretty high but not as high as it can get. Kompompluk is on the edge of Tonlé Sap, the largest freshwater lake in Southeast Asia.
