Check out the rest of my Cambodia Trip on the playlist here: /playlist/PLBe58wMUQrS_7ga3BEmQZf1RFwDD29sVs Thank you for watching my channel. These videos and this playlist cover my visit and travel to and around Cambodia. Flying in from Tan Son Nhat SGN to Siem Reap REP airport and out from Phnom Penh PNH to Phu Bai for a week while travelling around Vietnam - visible on this playlist: /playlist/PLBe58wMUQrS829zvV-kyN30ZS_dYDP5fh - we arrived in Siem Reap and stayed on the outskirts in the Cambodian part of town, a good half an hour's walk from the tourist area around Pub Street. Cambodia is astonishing. Such warm, friendly, happy welcoming people who smiled all the time conflict with the history of the years under the Khmer Rouge when over a quarter of the population was murdered during the Pol Pot genocide. In Siem Reap there are people who bear the scars from this still but mostly we saw buddhist monks and temples, ate fantastic food and drank ice cold angkor beer for half a dollar, walked around freely visiting markets and souvenir shops, buying the odd krama and haggling. From there it was out to the temples of Angkor Archaeological Park by tuk tuk - • Angkor Wat, Angkor Thom, Phnom Bakheng, South Gate, Bayon, Terrace of the Elephants, Victory Gate, Thommanon, Chau Say Tevoda, Ta Keo,Ta Prohm, Banteay Kdei, Prasat Kravan, Banteay Srei - all a bit Lara Croft in Tomb Raider! Seeing the remnants of war in the museum where we met Sinarth (the Cat) From Siem Reap we flew to Phnom Penh, a marvellous city on the banks of the Mekong. Exploring on foot, we visited the Hotel le Royal, now owned by Raffles, and the markets, bars, restaurants and Temples before heading to the genocide museum at Tuol Sleng and the killing fields at Choueng Ek and finally flying back to Vietnam, seeing the B52 bomb craters left over from the war. A fabulous country and one I would happily return for an extended time - perhaps even to live
