Major cities and towns in the province

Banteay Meanchey lies in northwestern Cambodia. Sisophon, also known as Serei Saophoan, is the provincial capital and an important administrative and transport centre. Poipet is another major urban centre, situated at the border with Thailand.

For a useful largest-cities overview, Sisophon and Poipet are the principal names to recognize. Other district centres and towns may appear in broader lists, but settlement rankings depend on the boundary and geographic category being used. A municipality’s population and a continuously built-up urban area are not necessarily measured in the same way.

Every locality in the province follows UTC+7. Although crossing an international border can introduce a clock difference, travelling between Poipet, Sisophon, and rural parts of Banteay Meanchey does not.

Sunrise in Banteay Meanchey

Sunrise varies by date and position within the province. Sisophon offers a sensible central reference, while Poipet-specific coordinates are preferable for someone near the western border. A provincial label alone may produce a generalized location rather than the observer’s actual point.

A listed sunrise time represents the calculated moment at the horizon. Trees, buildings, haze, and cloud affect the first visible sunlight. Those conditions change what an observer experiences without altering the underlying astronomical result.

Select the nearest city or provide exact coordinates. Choose the date for the planned activity. Confirm that the displayed time is UTC+7. Allow for local obstructions if visibility is important.
