After 4 busy days at Angkor, we were happy to stay at Boddhi Tree Del Gusto (great place!) which is a little oasis in busy Phnom Penh. We basically sat on the veranda all day and ordered from the super-cheap but incredible delicious menu...they even had many French delicacies such as Creme Brulee, Mousse au Cholocat etc.
We did however get out to visit some of the local sites including: the sobering Tuol Sleng Museum and Killing Fields where hundreds of thousands of Khmers were tortured and killed by the Khmer Rouge from '75-'79; the Royal Palace with all its grandeur; and the National Musuem where they try to preserve some of the fine relics of Khmer history.
