Halal Tourism (Cambodia)
Phnom Penh, April 10th, 2023 —
The Cambodian people will celebrate this weekend, from April 14 to 16, their traditional New Year, one of the biggest festivals in the country.
On April 14 at 16:00, the year of Rabbit will begin. The New Year’s angel is Kimirea Devy, the sixth daughter of Kabel Moha Prum.
Cambodia’s traditional New Year, “Chaul Chhnam Thmei” generally falls in around mid-April or the Chet, the fifth month of the Cambodian lunar calendar during which peasants are relieved of their farm work after the dry-season rice harvest.
Generally, people return to their homeland, go to pagoda, travel to different tourism destinations, and join various entertainment activities.
Thanks to successful control of the COVID-19 spread and economic recovery, this year’s New Year celebrations will be held joyfully across the country.
