Koh Pich (Khmer: កោះពេជ្រ, Kaôh Péch [kɑh peic]; English: Diamond Island) is a 100-hectare island and a mixed-use estate and central business district in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. It lies in the Tonlé Bassac River near Chaktomuk (the “Four Arms” junction), where the Mekong and Tonlé Sap rivers meet and the Bassac River branches off; it forms part of Chamkar Mon District and faces Koh Norea across the river.
Development began in 2006, when OCIC, the developer of Koh Pich, launched the project and transformed the former swamp area into a planned urban district. Koh Pich has since developed into a major concentration of residential, commercial, hospitality, and event uses, including high-rise projects, offices, retail spaces, and exhibition and convention facilities.
