Cambodia, often referred to as the "Kingdom of Wonder," is a breathtaking Southeast Asian country located between Thailand to the west and northwest, Laos to the northeast, and Vietnam to the east, with a pristine coastline along the Gulf of Thailand to the southwest. Cambodia is widely acclaimed for its rich history and culture, ranging from the ancient Angkor Wat, the world's largest religious monument, to its vibrant capital city, Phnom Penh, providing an appealing blend of royal palaces, archaeological museums, and bustling markets. Known for its timeless landscapes of sprawling rice fields, mystical temples, and serene beaches, Cambodia further enchants visitors with its compelling customs, delectable cuisine, and the unwavering kindness of its people.

Was pleasantly surprised by how much I loved and felt safe in Cambodia. The food is so good, similar flavours to Thai/Viet but lighter on the palate with so much fresh vegetables, we had Khmer food everyday. Also, the warmth and understanding from the locals is touching, although there can be a lot of traffic, they don't honk obnoxiously at each other or at pedestrians. Shoutout to our Angkor Wat guide who really adjusted to our energy levels and told us so many interesting stories not just about the sights, but about his own life. I also appreciated how he somehow managed to go “off the beaten path” in places crawling with people to take better photos for us. Lastly, as a Malaysian, I was super impressed with how clean all the toilets we encountered were. 🙏 I look forward to coming back to this beautiful country one day.

Cambodia is super safe, unlike what you may have seen on social or main stream media. I went primarily to visit the temples which are up to 1500 years old. People are super honest, no touting, limited haggling jf you use grab for public transport. I strongly recommend if you are a strong history buff!
