Tonle Sap Lake
Tonle Sap Lake is the largest freshwater lake in Southeast Asia, located in Cambodia. It plays a crucial role in the region's ecosystem and economy, providing a habitat for diverse wildlife and supporting local fishing communities. The lake's size varies significantly between the dry and wet seasons, expanding dramatically during the monsoon rains.
The lake is also home to several floating villages, where communities live and work on the water. These villages rely on the lake for their livelihoods, engaging in fishing and agriculture. Tonle Sap Lake is recognized for its rich biodiversity, including various fish species and migratory birds.
