Visiting Battambang Bat Caves, Cambodia


Visiting the Bat Caves in Battambang was one of my highlights of Cambodia. The main reason we actually went to Battambang was to visit the Bat Caves and I am glad we took the detour. It really is a natural phenomenon. Millions of bats flying out of a cave, with bars where you can grab a cold beer while you enjoy the view, with an incredible backdrop of the Phnom Sampeou...is there is a better way to spend your evening?

Getting to the Battambang Bat Caves


The Battambang Bat Caves are based around 12 km from Battambang. The tuk-tuk drivers will know exactly where you need to go when you mention the bat caves.
