About Battambang:
Battambang is the capital city of Battambang province in northwestern Cambodia.
Founded in the 11th century by the Khmer Empire, Battambang is the leading rice-producing province of the country. For nearly 100 years it was a major commercial hub and provincial capital of Siamese province of Inner Cambodia (1795-1907), though it was always populated by Khmer, with some ethnic Vietnamese, Lao, Thai and Chinese. Battambang remains the hub of Cambodia's northwest, connecting the region with Phnom Penh and Thailand.
The city is situated on the Sangkae River, a tranquil, small body of water that winds its way picturesquely through Battambang Province. As with much of Cambodia, French Colonial architecture is a notable aspect of the city, with some of the best-preserved examples in the country.

Our itinerary:
Day 1:
= Arrived at Siem Reap
= Checked in at Khmer Cuisine Bed and Breakfast - THEY ARE THE BEST. They helped us with everything: getting a tuktuk, traveling from the airport to the hotel, reserving bus tickets to Battambang, and booking tours. And they did it free of charge. Their rooms aren't the cleanest or the biggest, but their topnotch service more than covers for it.
Day 2:
= Angkor Archaeological Park by bicycle - We don't suggest doing this unless you're on a really tight budget--like us! It's better if you hire a guide, since he'll be able to explain all about the temples and their significance.
Day 3:
= Phnom Kulen Tour with Angkor Wat Tour Guide - Our guide's name was Savan, and he is the most helpful and informative guide you will ever meet. He's just really awesome. We recommend this tour 'cause you can get reaaaally close to the waterfalls. You also get to see the Reclining Buddha and the Thousand Lingas.
= Landmine Museum - Visit this place, please. I was so overwhelmed by the generosity and kindness of Aki Ra, the founder. He has made it his duty to rid Cambodia of landmines and provide assistance to all landmine victims. His story is both heartbreaking and inspiring; I wish I could have met him.
= Angkor National Museum - entertaining and informative. It's too bad we came in too late and we didn't get to see everything.
= Phare Circus - these guys are just freakin' amazing. I was blown away by their talent. The only thing I didn't like was the story, cause it seemed kind of underwhelming, but I liked everything else.
Day 4
= Bus to Battambang - costs $5 one-way
= Checked in at Star Hotel - Nice rooms! Really spacious, and it comes with a miniref and wardrobe! All for $15 a night!
= Bike Ek Phnom Tour with Butterfly Tours - A bit lacking in sights to see, but I think it's because it rained quite heavily. Heng and Vanna, our guides, are both college students who decided to work part-time to improve their English and interact with people. Both of them were very nice and they would do their best to explain the attractions you visit.
= Dinner at the Lonely Tree Cafe - This gets a special mention because we adore the place. The ambiance was good, the food was really tasty. The only down side is that the staff aren't very attentive, but maybe it's due to the language barrier, it's hard to say.
Day 5
= Bamboo Train - so chill, so awesome. You just sit on the bamboo mat and watch the scenery go by. You might occasionally get hit by random insects, but all in all, it's a pretty awesome ride.
= Sunset Tour with Quad Adventure ATV Tours - You get to ride an ATV around the country side and watch the sunset. Driving an ATV is aaaawesoooome. I'm a bad driver, but whatevs.
Day 6
= Royal Gardens - Not much to see, but there's a really nice fountain. And it seems really peaceful.
= Wat Bo Temple
= Sombai Infused Rice Spirit Shop - If you love drinking, look no further than this place. The drinks are really good, and they come in 7 flavors. My favorites are the Lemon-Lemongrass and the Ginger-Red Chili. The guy who attended to us--I'm sorry I forgot your name :( -- was very helpful and friendly; he let us taste all the drinks and let us have as much refills as we wanted. xD The packaging is nice; there are hand-painted bottles there that you can bring home to your family and friends.
= Pizza Presto CoCo - REALLY GOOD PIZZA. I admit, we only tried it because we got reeled in by their $1 pizza deal. Thin crust pizza with a generous amount of cheese and toppings. Damn. Just thinking about it is making me hungry.
= Angkor Cinema - personal cinema. You can watch any movie at any time for only $5. We watched The Killing Fields. a wonderful film about the Khmer Rouge which made us both cry.
= Night Market - has a lot of cheap shirts with surprisingly good designs. And those Cambodian pants are really comfortable. I also bought this 3D crocodile puzzle.
Day 7
= Back to our country
I think this is the best trip I have had so far. Thank you, Heng, Vanna, Savan, Sambath, the staff of Khmer Cuisine, that guy from Sombai, for making our trip to Cambodia totally awesome.

Stick Insect (Phasmatodea) at the Angkor Butterfly Center - Siem Reap, Cambodia
WestIslandKev: June 12, 2013 - Siem Reap, Cambodia.
The Phasmatodea (sometimes called Phasmida or Phasmatoptera) are an order of insects, whose members are variously known as stick insects. The greatest diversity is found in Southeast Asia.
The Angkor Butterfly Center, also known as the Banteay Srey Butterfly Center, is located in Siem Reap Province, Cambodia 25 km north of the City of Siem Reap on the way to the Banteay Srey Temple. The Angkor Butterfly Center is an interactive butterfly exhibit and features a live display of Cambodian butterflies. The exhibit consists of a netted tropical garden with hundreds of free-flying butterflies, all of which are native species to Cambodia. The enclosure is South East Asia's largest butterfly exhibit and provides residents and tourists with an interactive and visual environment to learn about butterflies and support local communities.
