Travel blogger Chel & Sois has an interesting post on a trip in Kampong Cham province in the mighty Mekong river delta, once an important trading town during the French occupation.

We were only there for a day. Within this short time period we visited the local market and had some great food, but the highlight was a bikeride through the countryside, including a visit to a local temple, school, and tobacco plantation. Another cool feature was that we crossed the Mekong river by a bamboo bridge.
