Siem Reap
The Buffalo cart riding community in rural Cambodia is located in Chrey Village, Puok District, Teuk Vil Commune, Siem Reap Province, Cambodia.
In the heart of rural Cambodia, nestled amidst lush rice paddies and serene villages, lies a unique and vibrant community: the buffalo cart riders. These individuals, often farmers themselves, have forged a deep connection with the water buffalo, a creature integral to their livelihoods. The buffalo cart, constructed from wood and bamboo, is a staple of rural transportation, used for transporting crops, hauling water, and ferrying people to and from markets. For many, riding a buffalo cart is more than transportation; it is a way of life, connecting them to the past and the land.
The buffalo cart riding community is located about 18 kilometers west of Siem Reap town. You can reach it by tuk-tuk, taxi, or a guided tour that includes transportation.
