Kampong Cham
Kampong Cham is the seventh largest city in Cambodia, but a relatively small city. It has yet to be heavily visited like Phnom Penh or Siem Reap. It carries with it plenty of colonial French charm, and has a genuine "wild west" feel to it.
- Type: City with 118,000 residents
- Description: capital of the same named Cambodian province
- Also known as: “Compon-lina”, “Kampongčamas”, “Kampongtiamas”, “Kompon Cam”, “Rampong Chaam”, “Thành phố Kampong Cham”, “Кампонгцям (горад)”, “ស្រុក កំពង់ចាម”, and “ស្រុកកំពង់ចាម”
