Se San River
Located about 40km from northern part of the capital town of Banlung, the Se San is an all seasons river and one of the most important ecology systems that overlaps the provinces of Stung Treng and Ratanakiri. On the surface, some stretches of water glitter like diamonds and emeralds with white sandy beaches running alongside attracting scores of tourists to sunbath and make merry. The clear water along the river reflects the colourful sky-backed mountains and jungle and even during the dry season, the ambience can be charming. The numerous stretches of beach boast many spots for swimming and fishing; such recreational activities attract both local and international tourists all year round.
On one side of the Se San River the Veon Sai commune is a harmonious territory occupied by several ethnic groups; Khmer, Chinese, Kroeng, and Laotian people have been living there for generations. While the Chinese observe their own Chinese culture and traditional practices, the other groups also have their own ancestral practices to keep their identities. Here, they all communicate commonly in Chinese although all of them do speak Khmer and understood the Cambodian language well. The Hill Tribe, and people of Laotian ethnicity speak in their mother tongue among their own kind.
Most of the people here are farmers, fishermen and local traders.
