Bokor is definitely one of my top 5 favorite things about Cambodia. Always visit but never stay the night. Glad you gave the inside look!

[@sayhitobobby]

Yay!!! You’re back. Thanks for the video as always!! ❤❤❤❤❤

[@cloud1ne501]

Thanks for showing the strangeness of Bokor Mtn. I love these type of vlogs especially when they are lengthy.. keep em coming bud looking forward to the next one.

[@Futuretycoon2375]

What's up Pat? Thanks for a beautiful video tour at Bokor. I shall be there next Summer .

Great video!! Really enjoyed it. 👍❤

Thanks, will do!

[@monalizachhay6690]

what the hell? there is no customers at all!! how are these people staying in business!! Thank you and lovely wife for sharing it with us!!

[@ForRiel]

Really enjoyed this video! I was surprised at how nice the hotel room was. It's a real shame about the development up there. More and more land is cleared but those ghost buildings sit there unfinished and empty. Adds to the vibe up there I guess.

[@CamboVlogs]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@fasteddy60]

Excellant video Pat ! An hour well spent, very informative and relaxing, thanks for sharing. I can relate to the strange, eerie feeling that one feels while up there, very comfortable and cool temperatures up there also very refreshing.

[@CamboVlogs]

Thank you. Yeah i still love the mountain though

[@CamboVlogs]

My pleasure 😊

[@smokeylore]

Great content 👍😊

[@gomiko1608]

Likewise, when I was a kid, I remember it used to take hours to go up the dirt road. Fewer buildings, just nature. Back then, you could see the wind moving in the clouds. Not sure if you still see it.

[@CamboVlogs]

You can still see it

[@daravuthkhmerson8761]

I’m really happy to see that you got deep love for Bokor mountain. By the way, that thing that you ate, I believe it’s called cartilage - and it’s good!👍

Hello Pat thank you for the video, how much they charge for hotels room?

[@mealea98]

24:13 love the reflection on this 🤗🙏

Yes, I agree with you. It is the muscle you're eating from your pho beef soup. "Ta saille " is muscle.

The whole BOKOR mountain place would be great if there were more people .

[@sithag.5893]

Whow..the Stephen King hotel..no one is there except you two scary lol..and that slow dance music it so reminded me of Stephen King movie.

[@BIGJED75]

Hahaha, Zombie apocalypse.... Great minds! We did a Vlog about a year ago and nothing much has changed. It's a very strange place.

[@Collectiveworld168]

this video just reminds of my childhood i use to like go to bokor mountain alot at 2014 when i was 4 the hotel was a masterpiece and thank you for making this i am going to bokor for new year have a good new year everybody and cambo vlogs!!! edit: also at bokor in new years is 14 degrees at night :)

Bokor reminds me of the 1980 movie The Shining. Too quiet bro.

[@CamboVlogs]

I think thats why I love the place so much. Always gotta go back 😆

[@minniec.9127]

I was thinking the same. Reminded me of the hotel in The Shining except the hotel in The Shining is classically beautiful. The one in Cambodia is empty, ugly and putrid.

[@menglongspicymukbank1487]

Where can you find that waterfall when I went to bokor mountain I never saw that waterfall from

[@Exset20]

It's beef tendons. Common ingredients in pho. 🙂

[@jennycheng3245]

This BOKOR place is good for a weekend get away just needs more people.

[@swiss86watches]

Nice 👍 place brother 😊

[@heythave]

With so much wind up there, they could put small wind turbines to harness electricity. Also, some solar panels.

[@saviyou]

How much are those homes at 21:10

[@CamboVlogs]

Not sure. Either way its not a legacy lease. Probably can only own it as long as Sokhas contract for the mountain is still valid

[@VICSWEB1]

1000's of brand new vacant shop houses in penong penn too.

[@sopheakchhim8949]

How long you been living in Cambodia? Your Khmer language is really good

[@melchaos5288]

Not fat. It's Beef Tendon. My Fave!

[@heythave]

That done at 29:07 looks like an airplane hanger. A control tower(?) can be seen in the distance off to the right of that dome.

[@CamboVlogs]

Its some sort of water tower antenna. Theres no place with an airstrip so couldnt be a hanger

[@heythave]

@@CamboVlogs Yes, you showed later. It is indeed just an abandoned, empty building. So much money wasted. Somebody’s not thinking far.

[@cetilly]

@Cambo Vlogs Probably tendon, which contains collagen which is the delicious component

Tasai is tendon !!

I was there a week ago

[@bongmom8143]

Wow 😲

[@sokhysan1997]

Is so sad to see a big hotel and casino like that without people there it so so sad cause it seem like there are no one there seem like a dead haunted place Cambodian people cannot afford staying there this place is only for tourists but I guess it recover from Covid yet cause there no tourist there

[@pecchong2789]

Very yummy

[@heythave]

That popork waterfall water is really brown colored. Is that a run-off of some chicken farm somewhere?

[@gomiko1608]

The majority of rivers/streams in Cambodia are usually brown due to the sediment that is high in minerals. It helps the country by improving soil fertility.

[@CamboVlogs]

I was wondering why that was

[@gomiko1608]

@@CamboVlogs Another reason is the clay content in the soil of Cambodia. The Colorado River is brown due to similar types of sediment. That's why people always say the Colorado river is muddy but in fact, it's not. England rivers are brown due to pollution and rust sediments, that's why many English think brown water is dirty water. In Cambodia and most Southwestern states, it's natural sediments.

[@koolpebble]

Why did it look like you two were the guests? Lol. There's definitely something odd about this. In America, this hotel/casino would go out of business real quick.

[@HydnBB2]

What’s the temperature up there?

Prob around 60s

I don't know what was on their minds to transform old casino to hotel. There is nothing to see now on Bokor.

[@adgamepro7701]

[@martinherald6492]

Near that row of abandoned terrace houses, is this building that looks like an abandoned aircraft hanger. There's a large hole in the roof and no runway. It looks like it would have more floor space than the central market (phsa thmey, literally translates 'market new') in Phnom Penh. Does anyone know what that building was and why it was abandoned? I went past that hotel they stayed in whilst there were still covid restrictions in many countries. I drove past the door and was surprised to see that it wasn't abandoned. That seems to be the charm of Bokor at the moment. It's like a mysterious ghost town with more questions than answers.

[@martinherald6492]

@@CamboVlogs I went there again last weekend and showed that building to friends. One remarked that he thought the 'hanger' like building looked like a distribution center. A good theory. I can only imagine that they built it before the airport that never happened or something similar. Anyway, despite all the abandoned houses, they are still building more all over the place up there. Good luck in selling them. Anyhow, catch you latter : )

[@CamboVlogs]

@Martin Herald despite it being an ugly pile of crap up there surrounding beautiful old colonial and khmer golden era buildings i still love bokor. Its a place thats constantly calling me. I cant quite explain the feeling. Ill go back soon.

[@dedeone4753]

And you can sleep for free at the pagoda, they have also perfect view on the sunrise.

[@CamboVlogs]

Oh I thought it was the old post office. I know there was a post office/Salon and couple other spots in that area. I though Sihanouks was further up.

[@dedeone4753]

@@CamboVlogs not at all, i used to make tours and know a bit. I'm the one who invited you before to go to some waterfalls. What is also nice are the Phnom Chhngok caves with the oldest temple of Cambodia inside. A small funai period brick temple, double as old as Angkor Wat. The tunnels are a real adventure to go trough. Not far from there is also a pool in a cave, sunset over the pepper farms in an infinity pool and few more spectacular waterfalls. For 1-2 weeks I will be here at least, so you are still invited and I can show you the best places around Kampot 🤙🏼
