visiting the bat cave at Phnom Sampov is a must-do for any visitor to Battambang Province. The bats emerge from the cave in a massive swarm around 5:30 PM to 7 PM, and it is an incredible sight to see. There are usually a lot of people gathered at the cave to watch the bats, and you can often find places to sit and have a beer or snack while you wait.

Here are some additional tips for watching the bat flight at Phnom Sampov:

Arrive early to get a good spot. The best viewing spots are usually taken up by early birds, so it is a good idea to arrive at least an hour before the bats are scheduled to emerge. Bring a camera with a zoom lens. You will want to be able to get close-up shots of the bats as they fly by. Wear long sleeves and pants. The bats can sometimes drop guano (bat droppings), so it is a good idea to protect yourself from getting dirty. Be aware of your surroundings. The bats can sometimes fly very close to people, so it is important to be aware of your surroundings and not to stand too close to the edge of the cave. I hope these tips help you have a great experience watching the bat flight at Phnom Sampov!
