    Overview

    DAY 1: ARRIVAL IN PHNOM PENH 
    Namaste and welcome to Cambodia.
    Arrive in Phnom Penh International Airport, the city that retains its Traditional Khmer and colonial charm. French villas along tree-lined boulevards remind the visitor that the city was once considered the ‘pearl’ of Southeast Asia. Recent political changes have triggered an economic boom with new hotels, restaurants, bars and nightclubs springing up across the city (pick-up with guide).

     

     

    DAY 2: PHNOM PENH’S PAST AND PRESENT
    AM: Visit the Royal Palace compound build in 1866 by the Predecessors of King Norodom. It is the most conspicuous feature and also one of impressive colorful Khmer-Style Palaces. Nearside the Royal Palace is the Silver Pagoda (The Emerald Buddha Temple), displays plenty of Buddha Statues that were decorated and made by diamond, emerald, gold and silver. Travelers will proceed to visit Independence Monument which was constructed in 1954 after Cambodian took their country back from French colony, the Wat Phnom “Hill Of Pagoda".

     


    PM:
    Learn about the dark side of Cambodia — It's more recent turbulent and harrowing history. Initially you visit the Toul Sleng Genocide Museum (also known as S21), Ironically a former school, located in a quiet Phnom Penh Suburb, this was the infamous Khmer Rouge Prison / Torture Centre then shopping at local market as below (If thetime permits you can visit 2 markets.).

     


    OPTION 1:
    Central Market (Psar Thmei), a large market constructed in 1937 in the shape of a dome with four arms branching out into vast hallways with countless stalls of goods. The four wings of this gigantic yellow dome are teeming with stalls that sell goods ranging from gold and silver, antique coins, money exchange, books, flowers, food, fabrics, shoes, souvenirs, seafood and countless other products.

     


    OPTION 2:
    One of the city’s lively open markets, Psar Toul Tom Pong called as “Russian Market” where anything and everything is for sales.
