If you are in Cambodia and you need emergency vaccination, here’s what you need to do.

If you want to shop for “name brand” clothes, bags, sunglasses, or more, the Russian Market is one of the best places in the city, providing you know how to barter for a fair price.

A visit to the Royal Palace and Silver Pagoda is one of the must-have experiences when visiting Phnom Penh. The Royal Palace and the Silver Pagoda, the most important royal temple in Cambodia, are open to visitors. Everything you need to know about visiting the Royal Palace. Admission, opening hours, location, common scams.

The National Museum of Cambodia in Phnom Penh is located near the Royal Palace in a gorgeous old Cambodian-Colonial style building, which dates back to the founding of the museum in 1920. The collection is interesting, but students of architecture will possibly find this incredible old building even more so.

If you want to get a close look at spiritual life in Phnom Penh, there really is no better place than Wat Phnom.

One of the most tragic and important places to learn about the Cambodian genocide is at the Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum in the country’s capital, Phnom Penh. This school turned prison (code-named S-21) was one of the regime’s most brutal prisons. An estimated 20,000 prisoners were executed there. Seven former prisoners survived.

Before you go on your trip to Cambodia, make sure that you have the proper visa! Citizens of most countries can apply for a visa-upon-arrival at any of Cambodia’s international airports and most border crossings. If you want to save time at the airport, skip the lines by applying for a Cambodian evisa in advance.

Angkor Wat: ancient temple city, UNESCO site, bucket list item, wonder of the world. The price of tickets to the world-famous Angkor Wat nearly doubled in 2017, a new complication for world travelers on a budget. Make the most out of a one-day pass by seeing only the best of Angkor’s most magical and unforgettable sites both on and off the beaten path.

If you are on a tight budget, it’s possible to take a bus directly from Bangkok, Thailand to Siem Reap, Cambodia.

In my first book, The Long Road From Pub Street, I tell the story of my trip across Cambodia, from Siem Reap, to Phnom Penh.

After returning from an amazing nine-day long adventure across the whole of Cambodia, I had a nagging feeling that I should start to share my thoughts. I couldn’t shake the feeling, and began to feel inspired to transcribe and clean up my stories a little bit; to share my travels with anyone who was interested.

We spend a week in Cambodia, braving monkeys, jellyfish, rove beetles, and Typhoon Chaba! Our journey begins in Siem Reap, before taking us to the far south, where we rough it on a jungle island. Finally, we arrive in Phnom Penh for a much-needed cup of tea.

While Thailand is world-famous for its beautiful islands and beaches, Cambodia, it’s neighbor to the east, is often overlooked. Cambodia may be known for its ancient temples in Siem Reap, but the “Kingdom of Wonder” has its own slice of still mostly untouched paradise: Koh Rong Island.

The Cambodian town Siem Reap is often overshadowed by its nearby ancient temples. And that’s a shame; the city has a number of real gems. So what can you do in Siem Reap besides visiting Angkor Wat?
