Once known as the Pearl of Asia, Phnom Penh is Cambodia's chaotic yet captivating capital city.
Visit the Royal Palace and the thought provoking Tuol Sleng Prison and Killing Fields. Join the locals for an early evening stroll along the riverfront before dinner in one of the city's many restaurants.
