About 5km north of Battambang is the village of Pheam Ek, whose speciality industry is making rice paper for spring rolls. All along the road, in family workshops, you’ll see rice paste being steamed and then placed on a bamboo frame for drying in the sun. Plus the coconuts grown in this area are said to be especially sweet. Wat Ek Phnom is 5.5km further on.
