WELCOME TO CAMBODIA
We've trusted our eyes our whole life, but once visiting
Cambodia, we may start doubting them.
In front of
Angkor Wat, one of the
world's greatest achievements, we seem to be so tiny. Drops of the sunlight
piece the ancient walls and bring people from the modern life back to the Empire
of Kingdom Champa as well.
Emerging from a violent past of human rights atrocities, war and political
instability, Cambodia is recovering from its past and slowly
becoming a top destination on the South East Asian travel map. Travellers to
Cambodia can now enjoy many wonderful aspects of
this country. Pleasurable moments can be had in the snatches of friendly
conversations, in the tranquillity ushered in by Buddhist prayer or in the
sounds of workers in the rice paddies. One can also search for the charms of the
French-era capital city Phnom Penh, visit the tragic horrors of
the Killing Fields or drift past sleepy riverside locations on
a boat.
If looking for a relaxation on
beach, we can take a bus to
Sihanouk Ville, the only maritime port of Cambodia
where we also can explore the south coast and nearby Ream National Park.
How else to explain the exotic tremendous splendor of the 9th- to 13th-century
Khmer temples, the lively Apsara dances, the
tropical islands with barely a beach hut in sight and the untold
adventures lurking in northern forests?
All only can be explained by your own experience.
