The beauty of this district lies in the big houses, villas and improved infrastructure.

Toul kork is the first choice for those who are looking for private residence. In comparison to other parts of the CBD area, Toul Kork has much more potential in terms of landed rental properties, added Roshan. In the next 5 years, he believes that Toul Kork will be the next larger CBD area and most central location in Phnom Penh compared with Chamkarmon or BKK.
