People in the area are happy to communicate to tourists. Chlong is one of the districts in Kratie province that not many tourists visit. You can spend a whole day in the town. Along the way to Chlong you may see mosques, local villages, good views of rice fields, and hundred-year-old trees. If you want to have an experience with the people along the Mekong river and see the way people live in this region—Khmer houses, lakes, ponds, animals, racing boats, school children, pagodas, vegetables and the rural area—you can go to this region by motorbike or tuk tuk.
