The Kingdom of Cambodia is not like any other countries you have visited in Asia Pacific. Lack of decent infrastructures, hygiene and modern technology could be somewhat difficult for first time visitors. However, if you take into account that this ill-fated country had been through one of the most horrific Civil Wars in 1970, you will understand that now Cambodians are gradually recouping their hope and strengths they have lost over the past decades. Best way to learn and appreciate the native's lifestyle is to take a river cruise along the great Tonle Sap and open-mindedly observe a typical daily life. With so many unique activities and tasks revolving around the Tonle Sap, you can also witness the extraordinary Water Festival in October/November as a thanksgiving to Mekhong River. |

PHNOM PENH The largest Cambodian city, this capital represents a curious mix of a stunning French Colonial architecture and a shockingly much-below-average living. To keep yourself occupied, Royal Palace is well-worth a visit as well as a comprehensive study of Angkorian art collections at The National Museum will prepare you well for a life-time visit in Siem Reap. Sisowath Quay is a pleasant boulevard with nice cafes and bars running along the banks of the Mekong and Tonle Sap where expats and tourists enjoy the best of what Phnom Penh has to offer. On a more miserably heart stopping side, Tuol Sleng is a school-turn-into prison where you can retrieve traces of Khmer Rouge's inhumane regimes. Infamous killing fields, South of Phnom Penh, are certainly not to be missed. |

REAP Angkor Archaeological Park draws countless history and art enthusiasts to Siem Reap. Proudly made itself into the New Seven Wonders of the World's list, Angkor Wat is a phenomenal establishment dedicated to Hinduism. Reaching the top of the third tier is a real challenge as the steps are incredibly steep and narrow, but the view is well-worth all that sweat! Under a colossal city of Angkor Thom, there exists Bayon - a distinctive Mahayana Buddhist temple with mysterious giant stone faces adorn the 54 towers. Nobody should forget to end the day snapping up pictures of the most glorious sunset at Phnom Bakheng. Feeling exhausted from exploring the mighty Angkor? Siem Reap happens to offer the best variety of luxury and budget accommodations, eateries, cool bars and clubs and numerous value-for-money spas. |
