Days 12 & 13 - Into Cambodia and Phnom Penh
This morning we visit Cai Rang, one of the world's largest
floating markets. After time to explore, we transfer to Cao Lanh
for our onwards boat journey through the Mekong Delta, and into
Cambodia. We arrive in Phnom Penh, the country's exciting capital,
known as the 'Pearl of Asia', situated at the meeting point for
three great rivers - the Mekong, the Tonle Sap, and the Bassac.
On Day 13, we explore Phnom Penh. Despite its chequered recent
history, Phnom Penh is a wonderful place, home to a number of
ornate golden temples. Today's full-day sightseeing tour introduces
us to some of the city's main sights. We see the Silver Pagoda, the
grand Royal Palace, the National Museum and Central Market. We
later visit the moving Tuol Sleng - a museum dedicated to the
history of the Khmer Rouge regime.
