Prey Veng is also the name of the sleepy provincial capital.

A few decaying colonial structures can be found in the town itself, indicating that it was once a bustling and important center. On the west side of the town is a huge lake that disappears from March to August and is used by local farmers to grow rice on the fertile ground.
