    This Palace is opposite to the river and easily accessible from any hotel you are staying in .
    There is a ticket of USD 10 and same amount a guide will charge.
    Hiring a guide is recommended to know the history and detailing of the Palace.
    Some area are closed and sone are open for the Public and Tourist.
    Specially I liked the French Building inside the campus.
    All good great experiance.
    Just go there with a pair of goggles and plenty of water as you will have to walk and confront heavy sweating.

    The most authentic and interesting tempel that we saw in Phnom Penh. Te building is on top of a small artificial hill. Inside you find a very interesting tempel that is in active by the local population.

    Aeon Mall is a great place to spend an afternoon! Plenty of shops, restaurants, and entertainment options. Loved the cleanliness and modern atmosphere. While some stores might be a bit pricey, it's definitely worth a visit for a fun shopping experience.

    Lovely place for a walk along, we did this during the day and in the evening and the contrast was massive. During the day it’s a nice chilled walk but after 5pm it’s a bustling street full of locals enjoying meals from street vendors and other the pretty lights of the palace and the over the Mekong delta. I’d definitely recommend a walk at both times of day to experience the culture.

    Plenty of markets around Phnom Penh and while it is not really a must do, as markets all tend to be the same, it is worth a visit if you are looking for something to do.

    The museum is wonderful housed in a heritage building and thoroughly well curated, connecting money with all the social, cultural, geo-political connections and history of Cambodia.
    All the galleries are very well planned with impressive research and modern, easy to understand as well as interactive displays.
    Congratulations to the curatorial team for such a gem on this city!

    Nice place to visit, small place . It just took us around 15 min to cover the ground. Not crowded with tourist and locals as Covid-19 was spreading everywhere around the world.

    Really nice place to spend an evening, grab a movie or eat in the open food court. There are a few retail outlets too. Popular with local people. Very close to the city center.

    Two years ago, exactly at the same time,  my wife and I were deep in concentration in completing the hajj manasik,  the hajj rituals in mina and mecca. Today, we are celebrating the eidul adha in other ways.  We arrived in Phnom Penh,  the vibrant capital of Cambodia in the of afternoon of yaumul nahr, the first day of muslim worldwide sacrificing the animal as the mark of submission to the Almighty and as sign of selflessness as the meat of the sacrificial animals distributed to the poor and less fortunate.

    Upon arrival we perchance a visit to the Al Serkal Mosque in Phnom Penh , the newest and biggest , which to me exhibited the tolerance of the government and particularly the solidarity that of the HE Prime Minister Hun Sen towards the minority muslim community of Cham people in Cambodia. The Muslim are truly grateful to the HE graciousness.

    The next day we proceeded to Kratie Province, about 280 km from the capital, where few pockets of communal muslim Cham people reside. The Muslim Cham constitute  2 percent of the total population of about 15 million Cambodian. We brought along with us money entrusted to us by few friends and families to buy sacrificial animals. The cows were sacrificed at two kampong namely kampong Ro and Tenot and the meat were expeditiously distributed among the kampong inhabitants. It was delightful and joyous day for the kampong folks as some of the poorest of them will only  chanced to taste beef during the eid celebration.

    Yes, many are poor though not destitute.  Their dwelling and houses speak for itself. Some still depending on water from the great Mekong river or underground water which have to be drilled and pumped out and many are still without proper sanitation. Many are without fixed job and income. 

    The seasonal flooding of the Mekong river affected a large swath of land in the area for months. The flood water receded painfully slow, sometime will takes months to dry up and thus affected the economic activities and livelihood of the whole community.  We are however told that we are lucky as the seasonal flooding was delayed this time around. Otherwise, our visit will somehow be very much inconvenienced.

    We actually have factored in all inconveniences we may faced in the trip. We are not here for leisure after all.

    Seeing the joy of the children and the sparkling in the eyes of the kampung folks are the best reward. 

    Next year, by the grace of God we will come again to celebrate Eid with these simple kampung folks and we hope to do more for these people even not during the Eid. 

    Any one interested to join us ?.

    Let's spread the spirit of Eid al Adha in a more meaningful way. I'd like to quote President Duterte's Eid celebration message :

    "...Now, more than ever, we are called to lend a piece of ourselves to endeavours that redound to the common good and benefit the most number of people".

    In 2023, we took a trip to Kampot on a 20-22 seater coach. The Giant Ibis staff ensured that everyone was seated according to their seat numbers. The seats were comfortable, and the drivers were careful.

    This year, we went to Battambang on an 11-14 seater. The staff just allowed free seating. On our return trip, the coach was even double-booked. We had no choice but to take the uncomfortable seats behind the driver -- which were not the seats we booked. This driver was not a particularly careful driver, which was unnerving as there were problems with the seatbelts.

    The seats of the 11-14 seater were less comfortable, but the most worrying thing was the great difficulty in just trying to find the seatbelt buckles!

    Buying tickets for the same day trip is not convenient even though the staff told so on the phone. Better buy it a day or two before the trip.
    Nothing really changed after many years. I would say this was not a better trip compared to mine a few years ago. However, now you buy some light meals and drinks on the train. The payments are limited to cash and wing. Please make it easy for customers to pay as well as booking/buying tickets online. e-ticket....ect.
