Preah Vihear provincial administration has organised a cycling programme in the compound of Koh Ker Temple, a major historical and cultural site in the province, to promote the provincial tourism.
The event, initiated by Preah Vihear Provincial Governor H.E. Kim Rithy, took place late last week on the occasion of the 24th anniversary of International Youth Day.
More than 200 young people participated in the cycling event around the Koh Ker Temple with a total distance of 20 kilometres. Preah Vihear is a unique province in the northern part of Cambodia. The province is named after the Temple of Preah Vihear, its main hotspot.
Before, Preah Vihear was one of the most remote provinces in Cambodia, but now it can connect to different parts of the nation through infrastructure development which has been paid attention to by the Royal Government of Cambodia in the last decade.
