Cambodia Travel Guide

Cambodia is the home of the fabled Angkor Wat, the best preserved and largest temple within the large sprawling ancient Khmer complex that is still today considered an astonishing architectural achievement. Over a thousand different temples lie within the grounds that are surrounded by a large moat. As mysterious as it is spectacular, Cambodia is popularly explored through cycling trips or on motorbikes, where dirt roads lead you through countless rustic villages and past lush countrysides. To the north, pay a visit to the friendly hill tribes, discover animistic shrines, and possibly catch a fleeting glimpse of a wild ox or panther. Alternatively, a journey on the various river complexes throughout the country is an immersion into what is still today an important means of transportation and communication. Beach lovers will not be disappointed by the uncrowded sandy beaches, while those who want to learn about Cambodia’s history should be sure to stop at the landmine museums, as well as to visit the infamous Killing Fields – a memorial for those who were killed during the Khmer Rouge communist regime - that is today a Buddhist memorial. Cambodia is the land of the charming, the jawdropping, and the tropical life tucked in the hidden corner of Southeast Asia.Cambodians are also friendly and hospitable.
