Phnon Phen. It's the capital of Cambodia, and everyone ends up stopping here for a day or two. A few tips if and when you do come: 1) Don't stay by Hoan Kiem lake...there are $3 rooms, but it's shady, dirty, poorly lit area and everything is very overpriced 2) Visit the killing fields 3) Don't plan on staying too long - you can explore the place...

On the bus journey from Siem Reap we stopped at one rest stop where the locals were selling what looked like deep fried tarantulas. They may not have been but I didn't feel the need to test. Despite booking a pick in Phnom Penh from the GH in Siem Reap there was no one to meet us in Phnom Penh, so we were mobbed by the tuk tuk drivers. More by a...

We all wake up feeling knackered with coffee and breakfast helping slightly. We get a Tuk tuk to the Royal Palace and Pagoda but refuse to pay $6 each to go in so we walk around a bit in a daze and then walk back to the hotel in a daze. After a bad/good toilet experience which i wont go into any further we mingle about the hotel for a bit before...

Arrived here after a 6 hour bus trip on crazy roads. With overuse of the horn sleeping was difficult, plenty of sharp breaking which i can only assume is avoiding overtaking vehicles which seems to be a big part of every traffic life! The bus was not the one we paid for and was full of locals who stared at us the whole way, it was also very cram...

Cambodian are friendly people and are still naive.Here,we can still see little boy half naked riding on the back of the cow.
