                          About Public Holidays in Cambodia

                          Cambodia's calendar layers a modern royal court onto an older Buddhist lunar cycle: Pchum Ben (a multi-day ancestor-remembrance festival) and the Water Festival, Bon Om Touk, which marks the Tonle Sap river's seasonal reversal of flow with boat races on the water itself, are both set by the Khmer lunar calendar, while the King's and Queen Mother's birthdays anchor the fixed civil dates. The Royal Ploughing Ceremony, opening the rice-growing season, is unusual even among Cambodia's own moveable holidays - its date is chosen each year by royal astrologers rather than computed from the lunar calendar.
