Phnom Pen

An 8 am start for another big day out. First we were taken to 2 monuments - one for the previous King and one that celebrates Independence Day (from the French occupation).
Cambodia has been occupied by the Chinese, French & the Communist Khmer Rouge regime until 1979. They were only able to open their borders to tourists after 2003 because of land mines.
We then went to one of the Killing Fields, where a total of 3 million Cambodians were executed by the evil Pohl Pot regime. In many respects the Killing Fields are a place of peace now.
We then had lunch at a lovely restaurant overlooking the Sap River. Then off to the markets where we almost came undone with the heat and humidity. Bàck to the hotel for a cold shower and rest. We leave Phnom Pen tomorrow for Siem Reap, our last stop before we fly home.Okumaya devam et
