About Tonle Bassac and Bassac Lane

Tonle Bassac runs along the Bassac river south of the palace: the Sofitel Phnom Penh Phokeethra and AEON Mall on Sothearos Boulevard, Meta House on Street 228, and the small bars of Bassac Lane off Street 308.

Evenings belong to Bassac Lane; Meta House shows films and hosts talks most weeks.

Start with a cocktail at Le Boutier, then walk Bassac Lane.

Our advice: book La Coupole or Hachi at the Sofitel for a quiet dinner by the river.
