Kingdom of Cambodia

Phunom Penh

7 hours by bus from H.C.M.C. I arrived in the capital of Cambodia. People eat everything here. Cockroach, grass hopper, spider, rats, some wired plant etc... wow. It was the poorest country I've visited but people didn't look that unhappy. When you meet their eyes, people smile. In China, this would not happen. In Vietnam, if you don't give money, people will be unfriendly. Here, even though you don't buy anything, people will still smile at you.



















Angkor Wat

This was amazing. People should go once in their life time. Angkor Wat is actually one of the temple in the Angkor Park and there are a lot more temples around. The park is extremely huge that you need a car of a moto to go around. Tourist usully hire a car or a taxi. The entrance fee is $20 for one day pass, $40 for 3 days and $60 for 1 week. One day is definately not enough, 3 days are good. This is very very expensive in Cambodia but I noticed later that Cambodians are free to enter. Very poor country but very expensive for tourist. Please enjoy the pictures!
