Preah Vihear Province

The province of Preah Vihear is located in northern Cambodia (see map, above) and is probably most well known for the Preah Vihear temple that stands on an escarpment in Cambodia overlooking Thailand.

The Preah Vihear provincial post office (above) is now one of the few remaining post offices in Cambodia made of wood with a slate roof, a design dating back to the French colonial period.

The posting box stanfing at the entrance to the Preah Vihear Post Office.

My sincere thanks to Mr. Pen Ratana for the above digital photos.
