Phnom Penh

The Cambodian capital is a chaotic yet charming city that has stepped out of the shadows of the past to embrace a brighter future. Boasting one of the most beguiling riverfronts in the region, Phnom Penh is surprisingly sophisticated thanks to its hip hotels, epicurean eateries and boho bars ready to welcome urban explorers.

Experience emotional extremes at the inspiring National Museum and the grim Tuol Sleng prison, showcasing the best and worst of Cambodian history. Once known as the ‘pearl of Asia’, Phnom Penh is glistening once more.
