Phnom Penh is the capital and largest city of Cambodia. Located on the banks of the Mekong River.
Phnom Penh: the name can’t help but conjure up an image of the exotic. The glimmering spires of the Royal Palace, the fluttering saffron of the monks’ robes and the luscious location on the banks of the mighty Mekong – this is one of Asia’s oft-overlooked gems. But it’s also a city on the rise, as a new wave of investors move in, perhaps forever changing the character, and skyline, of this classic capital.
Phnom Penh sits at the crossroads of Asia’s past and present, a city of extremes: of poverty and excess, of charm and chaos…a city that never fails to captivate. Phnom Penh can be an assault on the senses. Motorbikes whiz through the laneways; stalls and markets exude pungent scents; and all the while the sound of life, of commerce, of survival, reverberates through the streets. But this is all part of the attraction. This is not just another metropolis, it is an older Asia that many dreamed of when first imagining their adventures overseas
