FIND YOUR NEXT ADVENTURE

Cambodia stands as a testament to both the resilience of human spirit and the grandeur of ancient civilizations. At its heart lies the Angkor Archaeological Park, home to hundreds of temple ruins including the iconic Angkor Wat, a breathtaking monument that represents the pinnacle of Khmer architecture. Beyond these stone marvels, Cambodia offers bustling markets, serene countryside dotted with rice paddies, and a coastline of untouched tropical beaches that rival any in Southeast Asia.

Despite its troubled recent history, Cambodia has emerged as a nation of smiling faces and open arms. Visitors can immerse themselves in the spiritual tranquility of Buddhist temples, sample the distinctive Khmer cuisine with its balance of sweet, sour, salty, and spicy flavors, or explore the vibrant urban culture of Phnom Penh. Whether you're wandering through ancient ruins at sunrise, cruising along the mighty Mekong River, or connecting with locals in rural villages, Cambodia offers travelers authentic experiences that resonate long after returning home.

Angkor Archaeological Park

Siem Reap Province, Cambodia

  • Angkor Wat Temple
  • Ta Prohm (Tomb Raider Temple)
  • Bayon Temple with its smiling faces

This UNESCO World Heritage site spans over 400 square kilometers and contains the magnificent remains of several capitals of the Khmer Empire. The temples, built between the 9th and 15th centuries, represent one of humankind's most astonishing architectural achievements. Watching the sunrise over Angkor Wat's distinctive silhouette is a bucket-list experience that draws travelers from across the globe.

Koh Rong

Sihanoukville Province, Cambodia

  • Pristine white-sand beaches
  • Bioluminescent plankton
  • Jungle hiking trails

Cambodia's second-largest island offers a paradise escape with its crystal-clear waters and powder-soft beaches. By day, visitors can snorkel among colorful coral reefs or trek through the island's lush interior. By night, the shoreline comes alive with glowing blue plankton creating a magical, starry effect in the water—a natural phenomenon that has made Koh Rong increasingly popular among travelers seeking both beauty and adventure.

Phnom Penh

Capital City, Cambodia

  • Royal Palace and Silver Pagoda
  • Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum
  • Central Market (Phsar Thmei)

Cambodia's capital blends colonial charm with contemporary energy along the banks of the Mekong River. The gleaming spires of the Royal Palace stand in stark contrast to the sobering Killing Fields and Tuol Sleng Museum, which document Cambodia's tragic Khmer Rouge period. Today's Phnom Penh is experiencing a renaissance with a burgeoning arts scene, innovative restaurants, and stylish bars, making it a complex and compelling urban destination.

Battambang

Northwestern Cambodia

  • Bamboo Train (Norry)
  • Colonial architecture
  • Phare Ponleu Selpak Circus

Cambodia's second-largest city offers a more authentic glimpse of Cambodian life away from the tourist trail. The surrounding countryside reveals traditional villages, ancient temples, and the famous bamboo train—a unique transportation method using a bamboo platform powered by a small engine. The city itself charms visitors with French colonial buildings, riverside ambiance, and the renowned Phare Circus, where young Cambodians showcase breathtaking acrobatic skills while telling stories of Cambodian culture.

Kampot

Southern Cambodia

  • Bokor National Park
  • World-famous Kampot pepper farms
  • Riverside scenery

This sleepy riverside town has become a haven for travelers seeking a slower pace. Famous for producing the world's finest pepper, Kampot offers tours of pepper plantations, boat trips along the tranquil Kampot River, and excursions to Bokor National Park with its abandoned French hill station. The town's blend of crumbling colonial architecture, excellent food scene, and proximity to the coast makes it an increasingly popular destination for those looking to experience Cambodia's laid-back charm.

Guidelines for Cultural Awareness

  • Remove shoes before entering temples, homes, and some businesses—look for shoes at the entrance as a cue. Dress modestly at religious sites, covering shoulders and knees out of respect.
  • Cambodians greet each other with a 'sampeah'—a slight bow with hands pressed together. The higher the hands, the more respect shown. As a visitor, a simple sampeah at chest level is appropriate in most situations.
  • When receiving or giving items, use both hands as a sign of respect. The head is considered sacred in Cambodian culture—avoid touching anyone's head, including children's.
  • Public displays of anger are considered extremely inappropriate in Cambodian culture. Even in frustrating situations, maintain composure and speak quietly and respectfully.
  • Ask permission before photographing people, especially monks. When visiting rural areas or interacting with elders, it's respectful to bring small gifts like fruit or incense as a gesture of goodwill.

Suggestions for Evening Activities

  • Experience the Phare Cambodian Circus in Siem Reap, which combines theater, music, dance, and acrobatics to tell uniquely Cambodian stories, with proceeds supporting arts education for disadvantaged youth.
  • Join a sunset cruise on Tonlé Sap Lake or the Mekong River, where you can enjoy traditional Khmer cuisine while watching the sky transform into vibrant colors over the water.
  • Visit Pub Street in Siem Reap, a lively entertainment district with numerous bars, restaurants, and night markets where you can sample local street food, shop for souvenirs, and enjoy live music.
  • Attend an Apsara dance performance, Cambodia's classical dance form recognized by UNESCO. These elegant performances featuring intricate hand movements and elaborate costumes often include dinner at upscale hotels and cultural centers.
  • Explore Bassac Lane in Phnom Penh, a trendy alley filled with boutique cocktail bars and microbreweries offering creative drinks in intimate settings—perfect for experiencing Cambodia's emerging nightlife scene.
