Phnom Sombok: This temple is one of the rather cleverly designed Tourist Attractions in Kratie located to the north of the town. Situated on the single hill near Kratie, you should head north and look it. Kratie Tours to this place takes you along a long flight of steps lead to a pavilion, the interior of which is painted with scenes of torture, depicting what happens to those who are not virtuous enough to lead a righteous and unsoiled lifestyle.
Sambor: This Tourist Attraction in Kratie is situated about 40 kms from the township. It is a pre Angkorian era settlement. The temples, among which is the Wat Sorsor Muoy Roi or the Temple of 100 Columns contain a number of colorful murals that narrate legends of nature, and other traditional mythological Buddhist stories. The original structure is no longer existent; in its place stands a reconstructed temple.
Irrawaddy Dolphin Watching: One of the popular Tourist Attractions in Kratie Dolphin Watching on the Irrawaddy River. There are less than 100 dolphins left in the river, so you may see them from a distance, though there are large groups frisking sometimes too. The best place to watch the dolphins is at the Kampi village, 15 kms north of Kratie. You charter a small boat for viewing these marine creatures at late afternoon in the rain. You should ensure that your Kratie Travel is enriched with the boatmen abiding by the dolphin watching guidelines.
