The famous thing about Battambang is The Bamboo Train or in Khmer “Norry” which provides unique experience to catch the glimpses of beautiful rural countryside and have some fun while the creative bamboo platform attached motor-engine runs over the railway which was constructed during French colonial time and the railway is linked to Phnom Penh and Poi Pet border (Thailand).
If your bamboo train confronts another coming toward you, the one with the bigger load will have the right to go first, while another has to get off the railway and piece the bamboo platform, reinstall, then continue its way.
There are two bamboo train stations in Battambang, the original Bamboo Train is just located 5km from the central town and it’s popularly occupied by overseas tourists, while the new Bamboo Train is situated near Banan temple with approximately. 22km (38 minute drive) and it attractively meets local desire.
