Cambodia
Cambodia is a unique and totally mystifying country. Its complex history, its magnificent landscapes and archeological wonders make it a popular destination of Southeast Asia.
Essential
In the capital Phnom Penh, the Royal Palace and the National Museum soak travelers to the rich and painful past of Cambodia. Strolling in the markets is a good way to discover the local life. However, it is in Siem Reap, specifically the Angkor Temples, that the traveler is transported several centuries back in the days of the Khmer Empire.
Nature
The adventurers could easily get off the beaten tracks while traveling in the charming and authentic Southern region. Koh Rong or Kep Beaches are both a sanctuary of tranquility and a nice place to relax after several days or weeks of cultural discoveries.

Phnom Penh
Nestled majestically at the confluence of the two mighty rivers, Mekong and Tonle Sap, the capital of Cambodia still retains an undeniable charm, with its wide tree-lined boulevards and French colonial buildings. Looking back to the colonial days, Phnom Penh is just a real oasis of peace which is well worth a visit.
