Kep Province

Nestled in southern Cambodia near the lush Kep National Park, the small capital city of Kep (Krong Kaeb) is home to just under 36,000 people. The city's unique character is shaped by its hauntingly beautiful abandoned villas, relics from its past as a resort town for the French colonial elite and Cambodian high society before it was devastated by the Khmer Civil War and the Khmer Rouge regime.
