Tonlé Sap, located in Siem Reap, Cambodia, is Southeast Asia's largest freshwater lake and an ecological marvel. This unique biosphere undergoes dramatic seasonal changes, swelling significantly during the wet season and contracting in the dry season. The lake is vital for the livelihoods of the local communities, providing a rich source of fish and supporting a variety of wildlife. The floating villages around Tonlé Sap are notable attractions, offering visitors a glimpse into the traditional lifestyles of the residents who have adapted to the lake's cyclical nature.
