Hidden Treasures
Long considered a one trick pony, Cambodia has come a very long way from its past incarnation as a three-night Siem Reap stopover – essentially just an interesting add-on to your holiday in Thailand or Vietnam. A very long way.
During recent years the former Khmer Kingdom has shaped itself into one of South-East Asia’s most tempting destinations, offering something to suit everyone.
Many of us are now finding our way back there, revisiting the Angkor temples, for sure, but this time including some of the barely known, harder-to-access temple sites, further away from Siem Reap.
Cambodia is no longer all about temples, either; Phnom Penh has metamorphosed into one of the most enticing cities in the region. Elsewhere in the country, excellent eco-lodges and jungle camps have begun to appear, and the south coast has evolved a completely new look.
With the Angkor temples very much selling themselves, for me it’s the lesser-known highlights, in the more far flung corners, that really complete a great trip through this beautiful, intriguing country.
