Tonle Sap is a large freshwater lake in Cambodia. It is the pride of a country a little smaller than Angkor. This lake is remarkable not only because it is large and fresh and changes its size by 4 in the rainy season, but mainly because people live here. They live right on the lake in boat houses. It so happened that poor people who do not have money for a piece of land do not have the right to build a house on this land. And they found such a way out - to live on the lake. There are schools, and kindergartens, and churches, and temples and shops - a whole city on the water.→
