Guide to Cambodia?
In the late afternoon, visitors to Angkor
often make their way to the hilltop temple of Phnom Bakheng
to watch the sun dip behind what is considered the major historical
attraction in Southeast Asia.
Built by a succession of 'god-kings' from the 9th century until
the 15th century - when it was abandoned to the jungle - Angkor
holds a staggering collection of palaces, galleries, monuments and
over 100 temples spread across 3000 square kilometres.
The sheer scale of exquisite architecture, testament to the kingdom's
glory days a millennium ago, cannot fail to inspire and humble anyone
fortunate enough to experience it.
That said, there's a lot more to Cambodia than Angkor - although
the state of the country's roads may make it an adventure to reach.
Central plains rise up to sheer-cliffed mountain ranges, forested
highlands and volcanic scenery near the country's borders.
To the east across the Mekong River lie the lush landscapes,
wildlife, spectacular waterfalls and hill tribes of the Ratanikiri
and Mondolkiri provinces. While on the southern coastline, long
stretches of unspoilt beaches, remote islands and tucked-away treasures
await.
The lure of historical attractions and dramatic scenery may make
it tempting to see nothing more of Phnom Penh than the airport.
But the heart of Cambodia's sprawling capital has a charm of its
own and many linger to soak up the atmosphere.
The French influence is still much in evidence in the wide boulevards,
riverside caf?s and quaint shop fronts. And, if you tire of buying
local food (like the staple amok, the delicious fish and coconut
curry) in the many markets, you can always opt for a baguette.
