Kean Svay Resort is under construction

Kean Svay Resort is about 13 km east of Phnom Penh on National Road 1. It is one of the most populated resort on weekends and public holidays.
It suits for family and friend reunion or such other small parties like birthday parties, but birthday cakes are not served there :D. There are many kinds of food available like fish, snails, chickens, and many other dried foods. You can also order soup from the hut owners, but that would be more expensive as they are instantly cooked. You can also find various fruit which are recently picked from the farms.
Kean Svay has many relaxing huts for renting for the whole day. The price is according to the size of the mat that you rent and also the day that you go there. The size of a mat - one space (around 2.5m x 2.5m) is probably $1.3 on weekdays or normal days. It may go up to $2.5 for the crowded days like weekends and public holidays.

You can also enjoy a boat trip around the river which may cost you $3 or $5 for one hour.

Right now, this place is under construction and will be finished sometime before Chinese New Year in 2013. The construction is mainly based on the path to the relaxing huts and the food stands. New food stands will provide the tourists more trusts on hygience and ease to get the food. There will also be sheds protecting you from the rain and sun while you are buying food. New car parks will be built and more security guards and police will be available for the whole days.

However, even though it is under construction, you still can enjoy your weekends and holidays as usual, only the food stands which are moved to a further space.

Below are the pictures which I took during my day there on September 24, 2012.
