National Route 57 leads, shortly after crossing the border, through the northern foothills of the Cardamom Mountains to the south (a vast, still largely intact jungle area with wild elephants and tigers, stretching all the way down to the Gulf of Thailand, which Heiner and I had crossed a few years earlier in the far south). The road then descends steadily on a good track into the large basin containing the enormous Tonle Sap Lake. Along the way, we encountered agricultural vehicles of the most primitive kind, similar to those in Cuba.
