Nothing to see but a view over the river. Plants and trees have taken over the place. Only reason to go is to get some exercise in on your way up the hill.

This place gets 4 stars from me only because I wanted to photograph an abandoned fort which looks like it's haunted. If you want to eat and shop, or are scared of ghosts then this is not the place...

Looks to be an interesting landmark and opportunity to wander the remnants of French colonisation, but unfortunately it was closed and didn't appear to have any sign of reopening (despite sign-posting toward it throughout town). As such, it is currently only viewable from a distance but provides a little viewing stop on the way to the more impressive buddhist temple, Wat Keophone Savanthanaram.
