Cambodia

We arrived in Phnom Penh the day before the tour started and spent the morning relaxing by the pool before going out to see the annual Water festival. On my way I came across a few monuments, parks and the Royal Palace. The Water festival was packed with locals sitting along the river banks watch the racing, I found a pavilion where they had the racing commentary translated into English and good views along the river. The racing boats were insane holding up to 70 people, a mix of standing and sitting rowers and a dancing cox with a mic. The event was rounded off with a firework display and (possibly) the royal family driving back to the palace.Leggi altro
