PROJECT LOCATION

The site is located in koh kong province, which positioned in the district of Mondulsima,The site is at the opposite side of khemarak phoumin city which is the capital f koh kong and it has about 137 000 in square meters or 13.7 hectares and has a total perimeter of 1515 meters.

FLORA AND FAUNA

The animals and plants that exist in our site which include various types of shrub, bushed tree bird, and multiple types of marine ecology which make the area quite a stunning scene of natural beauty

LOCATION ANALYSIS

The region’s rich ecological systems offer significant tourism potential, with diverse flora and fauna and eco-friendly activities. Khun Chhang Stupa, a heritage site, adds cultural depth and historical appeal for visitors. The area provides clean water and electricity, ensuring a comfortable, sustainable experience for all.

Creating a landmark as a tourism starting point benefits the local community by generating jobs and boosting the economy through visitor spending. Infrastructure development enhances transportation and utilities, improving residents’ quality of life. Careful planning preserves the ecological system, balancing growth and sustainability for regional development

The area features flat terrain and minimal landscape variation. Its remote location results in few tourists and amenities, making it less lively. An unpleasant odor from a trash truck disrupts the natural beauty and can deter visitors.

Rising sea levels from climate change threaten coastal areas and communities. Hard-to-access roads deter tourists, causing economic struggles for local businesses. A lack of local collaboration hinders efforts to address these challenges. Comprehensive planning and cooperation are urgently needed to safeguard coastal regions and support residents.

The support column of the tower act in a way the same as the trunk of the mangrove tree which hold support for the entire canopy.

The view platform symbolize the tree canopy which is the tallest part.
