  • Phnom Penh, Phnom Penh, Cambodia
    Nowadays Phnom Penh is a vibrant and bustling capital city with around 2,000,000 residents with motorbikes and cars and a culture of sidewalk cafes established in recent years. The capital of the Kingdom of Cambodia is located at the confluence of three rivers: The Mekong, the Bassac, and the Tonle Sap. Once considered the loveliest city of Indochina, the city still maintains considerable charm. There is plenty to see in this small colonial capital. The many sidewalk cafes, established along the riverfront, invite the visitor for a rest. In addition to such tourist sites as the Royal Palace, the Silver Pagoda, the National Museum, and Wat Phnom, there are several markets selling silk, silver, gems, and antiques. Also worthwhile is a visit to the notorious "Killing Fields" and Tuol Sleng Museum, which chronicle the unfortunate years under the brutal rule of the Khmer Rouge.

Standing on the site of the former citadel, it was built for King Norodom in front of the Mekong. Inside its walls are the Throne Hall, the Chan Chaya Pavilion, the Napoleon III Pavilion, and the King's and Queen's residential quarters.

Inside are some of the country's most cherished treasures, including a life-size gold Buddha studded with 9584 diamonds, the largest weighing 25 carats. There is also a delicate emerald Buddha made of baccarat crystal, which gives the temple its Khmer name of Wat Preah Keo (Temple of the Emerald Buddha). The walls enclosing the pagoda are covered with ancient frescoes depicting episodes from the Ramayana.

It offers a charming setting for the world’s finest collection of sculpture from the Angkor period. The intricate sculptures date from both the Angkorian and pre-Angkorian eras, complimented by recent examples of Cambodian art and a wooden Buddha collection. We recommend the incredible sandstone sculpture from Angkor, as well as the intricate bronzes.

    Next, continue visit the city's namesake, Wat Phnom. Located on one of the few hills in this pancake-flat capital, the first pagoda was originally built in 1373 to house Buddha statues discovered in the Mekong by a woman named Penh. This gives us the modern name of the city, Phnom Penh or Hill of Penh. Cambodians come to the shrine to pray for luck in love and life, employment and exams, so there it is always a bustling place.

They were often bludgeoned to death to avoid wasting precious bullets. Fragments of human bone and bits of cloth are scattered around the disinterred pits. Over 8,000 skulls, arranged by sex and age, are visible behind the clear glass panels of the Memorial Stupa, which was erected in 1988.

In 1975 Tuol Svay Prey High School was taken over by Pol Pot's security forces and turned into a prison known as Security Prison 21 (S-21). It soon became the largest such center of detention and torture in the country. More than 17,000 people held at S-21 were taken to the extermination camp at Choeung Ek to be executed; detainees who died during torture were buried in mass graves in the prison ground. Room after room the museum displays photographs of men, women and children covering the walls from floor to ceiling; virtually all the people pictured were later killed.

We were very lucky to have our wonderful guide Mr. Channak Sok to introduce us to the history and culture of Phnom Penh. On this private 1 day tour Mr. Sok and his driver took us by air conditioned SUV to the major sites around the city including the S21 prison, Cheong Ek Genocide Memorial, National Museum, and Wat Phnom Daun Penh. (The Royal Palace was closed that day but we were offered a river cruise instead. ) Mr. Sok’s knowledge of Cambodia is extensive and his commitment to sharing the heartbreaks of its history and aspirations for its future was moving. Although it was difficult to visit the prison and killing fields, the respect and reverence shown by Mr. Sok impressed upon us the importance for visitors to learn about the atrocities and honor the victims. The gravity of that part of the tour was counterbalanced by a terrific lunch at a friendly local restaurant that never would have found ourselves. Afterwards we enjoyed a driving tour of the major sites in the city including the riverfront, independence monument, a visit to the National Museum and Wat Phnom Daun Penh. All along the way Mr. Sok and the driver took care of every detail (pickup at our hotel, admission tickets, refreshments, etc) so that we could focus on the experience instead of worrying about the logistics of getting around a new city. If you value a meaningful personalized experience during your visit to Phnom Penh we highly recommend this tour.
