I love Cambodia. What a fantastic country. What amazing people.

Cambodia is located in Southeast Asia with a population of around 17 million. The capital of Cambodia is called Phnom Penh.

Cambodia is bordered by Thailand to the North-East, Laos to the North, and Vietnam to the East. Cambodia also has a coastline on the Gulf of Thailand. The largest ethnic group in Cambodia is the Khmer people.

Cambodia is one of the most amazing places I have been to. It's full of amazing history, food, people, and culture.

From the amazing temples of Angkor Wat to the bustling streets of Phnom Penh, to the tropical islands in the Gulf of Thailand, Cambodia has it all.

Angkor Wat translates to English as “The capital of temples”. It is a vast area of amazing historic temples located approximately 6km from the tourist town of Siem Reap. It really is an amazing place full of history.

The temples cover an area of 402 acres and are the largest religious monument in the world. Angkor Wat took over 28 years to build.

The best place to base yourself for visiting Angkor Wat is in Siem Reap, which is a resort town located 6km from the temples. Here you will find an array of accommodations, shops, and restaurants to suit everyone's budget.
