Temples of Angkor
Cambodia is the home to the biggest religious monument in the world. This fascinating building called Angkor Wat was built in the 12th century and it was originally a Hindu Temple. However, with time it transformed into a Buddhist sanctuary. This UNESCO World Heritage Site was featured in the world-famous movie Tomb Raider.
The Southern Island
Cambodia’s southern islands are a tropical Shangri-La many travelers are seeking. Although still untouched by the mega-resorts that have sprouted across southern Thailand, many of the islands have been tagged for major development by well-connected foreign investors. Visit Koh Rong that is known for its sandy coves and coral reefs.
Phnom Penh
Phnom Penh is Cambodia’s busy capital. Visit the royal palace, Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum, and Choeung Ek, known as the killing fields.
