Cambodia.
"The Pearl of Asia" - this is how the kingdom of Cambodia was called in ancient times.
For a long time this country was not accessible to tourists and only now the veil of the mysterious past of one of the most mysterious places in the world begins to open.
And it is not surprising that many people are eager to see the national symbols of the ancient state: the world famous city of Angkor, ancient temples, palaces and fortresses, lost in the impenetrable jungle.
Cambodia, or as it is also called Kampuchea, Funan, Chenla and the Angkor Empire is a country with many names, where the formation and development of one of the greatest and mysterious civilizations of the world with the richest Khmer culture took place.
The extraordinary Temples of Cambodia are the most valuable historical and architectural heritage of the whole world.
The unique terraces of the elephants, the leper king and the royal palace, where the royal family lived, allow you to plunge into a slightly mystical past.
Many tourists come here to relax on the sea.
Many people wonder what to choose which sea in Vietnam or Cambodia is better? What to visit?
In this amazing place nearby, the power and exotic beauty of the impenetrable thickets of the forest coexist, the pacifying grace of the settled countryside, the coastal strip of many beaches, the proximity of the sea and the rapid development of the capital of the kingdom of Phnom Penh.
The central streets of the city are built up with villas, two-four-storey houses built according to European traditions with shops and offices on 1 floors, the outskirts of the capital are built up with light wooden houses where indigenous people live.
The most famous sights of the kingdom are Angkor Thom (“Big City”) and the Bayon Temple of State Significance, the most ambitious construction of Cambodia Angkor Wat.
The most ancient construction of Phnom Penh is Wat Phnom with a stupa of the 15th century.
45 km from Phnom Penh is the former capital of the Khmer kingdom - the city of Oudong.
