Cambodia is a tapestry of rich traditions and intricate histories, teeming with captivating experiences. At the heart of this allure are the famed Angkor temples, a must-visit, with Ta Prohm being particularly mesmerizing. Best explored at sunrise, this temple reveals its otherworldly beauty as the morning light filters through the lush overgrowth.
Further afield, the floating villages on Lake Tonle Sap offer a rare glimpse into an age-old lifestyle that thrives on the water. In stark contrast, Phnom Penh – the nation’s capital – provides a sobering perspective on the dark shadows cast by the Khmer Rouge era. For a celebration of life and culture, the annual Water Festival is not to be missed. During this vibrant event, the riverfront comes alive with thrilling boat races, tempting food stalls, and spectacular fireworks, creating an unforgettable festive ambiance.
