Best of Cambodia

說明 Introduction

Cambodia is a Southeast Asian nation whose landscape spans low-lying plains, the Mekong Delta, mountains and Gulf of Thailand coastline. Situated on the Indochinese peninsula, Cambodia is bordered by Thailand and Laos on the North and Vietnam on the East and South.

 

Cambodia today is a uprising country but the terrible history left indelebile signs that are still visible today both in the landscape ( the Cambodian Mine Action Centre estimates that there may be as many as four to six million mines and other pieces of unexploded ordnance in Cambodia ) and in the people.
Cambodia offers today an incredible range of scenic locales; from its azure seas and white sandy beaches to the mist shrouded mountains. And all throughout, the land and ist people is imbued with a rich cultural heritage to be found anywhere from our stony temples to the great lake of Tonle Sap, to our hill tribes of the mountain region. Its busy capital, Phnom Penh, is home to the art deco Central Market, glittering Royal Palace and the National Museum's historical and archaeological exhibits. In the country's northwest lie ruins of Angkor Wat, a massive stone temple complex built during the Khmer Empire. There are many activities can be arranged during your holiday in the Kingdom of Cambodia.
