Kratie is known for being the home of the rare fresh water dolphin, the Irrawaddy. Since Kratie was spared during the war, it's also a good place to see historic Khmer houses situated on the edge of the Mekong.

Stung Treng, Cambodia
Stung Treng
This is a sleepy small town on the Mekong River in the Rattanakhiri province. Tourism here is still relatively underdeveloped, so although you may find it difficult to communicate in English, it's well worth it for that untainted feel.
