Sela Cham P'dey Statue
សិលាចាំប្តី
A white statue of a woman on Kep's seafront promenade, telling the legend of a fisherman's wife who waited every day for her husband to return from the sea. It is another landmark of Kep.
Sela Cham P'dey stands on the sea side east of Kep Beach. It is a white statue of a woman in a sarong gazing out at the ocean. It comes from a local folk tale about a fisherman's wife who waited day and night by the sea for her husband, who never returned, and eventually turned to stone. Together with the crab statue in the sea, it is one of Kep's signature sights. The statue sits beside a seaside walkway and small square, where locals stroll in the evening to cool off. It is a few minutes' walk from Kep Beach, so you can visit it together with the beach and the crab statue for photos. Free admission.
