View of Kirirom from about halfway up 

the mountain.

Here are some medicinal roots and woody

plant stems, laid out to dry.

There are conifer trees at the park!

The water is so clear in this stream, you can

see the rock under the water's surface, 

between the two plants in the foreground.

This shot was taken under tree cover, yet

the water is not black.

Needing some fresh, non-city air, I joined two friends for a day trip to Kirirom National Park. With Kirirom being 112km southwest of Phnom Penh, we started off at 8am and planned to return in the late afternoon. 

Taken from Wikipedia, 

The meaning of Kirirom is "Happy Mountain". This name was given to the area by King Monivong in the 1930s. The ancient name of the place was Phnom Vorvong Sorvong for the main two hills there were connected with the Cambodian popular legend about two heroic princely brothers, Vorvong and Sorvong.
