Having a fair share of important sites, Takeo boasts a good number of pre-Angkorian temples (Phom Da, Ta Prohm and Neang Khmao) and wildlife reserve areas (Chruos Phaork and Phnom Kleng). Often referred to as the "cradle of Cambodian civilization," this provincial capital is just a relaxed town with its surplus of natural and man-made creations.
The scenic river of Tonle Bati is a popular picnic area with its quaint bamboo shacks built out over the water which can be very romantic at dusk while the wildlife reserve areas and the Chissor Mountain can be a nice spot for a long, vigorous hike. Ardent hikers who reach the top are rewarded with the picturesque view of lakes dotting the countryside and rivers slicing through glistening rice fields.
