Water festival ceremony

            The annual festival marks the end of Cambodia’s rainy season, which often coincides with the reversal of Cambodia’s Tonle Sap River and the resultant flooding of the Tonle Sap lake. Bon Om Touk has been celebrated in Cambodia since as early as the 13th century, and signifies a celebration of water as an invaluable, life-giving resource: when the lake floods, it becomes a significant source of fish, and the surrounding farmland benefits from an increased surplus of minerals from the lake.      Bon Om Touk is celebrated throughout Cambodia — though the size of the celebrations varies depending on location.
