Exploration, mysterious, exciting, nostalgia — Cambodia Angkor seven days roaming

Ring ring.

The alarm clock goes off at five in the morning, wake up from sleep tends to the long-awaited Cambodia Angkor tour is about to begin!

We both a'waltzing, stop and a taxi, connected to two friends about good, Huanggang customs of to hurry.

Easy customs clearance, transfer to taxi go straight to the Hong Kong International Airport, take the Dragonair KA206 airliner in Phnom Penh.

9 month of Cambodia is the rainy season, just arrived in Phnom Penh, out of the airport, a unit of heat waves hit, have just finished the rain, but the air is filled with a feeling of humid.

Surrounding the taxi driver, TUTU car driver, see tourists piled, surrounding us, urban 9 knife. We rushed out of the bushes surrounding the airport outside of the road, find YUYU car driver asked price from the airport to downtown hotel (NICE GH) we offer 6 knife 4 personal, last 4 knife deal.

Just how fast the car suddenly TUTU, raining.

Cambodia weather that change becomes, TUTU car blazing in the storm, we put the car in gear rain curtain, car, driving in a foreign country on the road it is a strange excitement by heart. About half an hour or so, we went to the online booking of NICE GH, the rain stopped, we entered the GH, facade is so simple, the room is simple, but to 10 a night with air conditioning TV prices regarded as such, have nothing to say; but GH staff are all very well for us in order to introduce the city's attractions, drink and eat, transportation, etc., and also help me contact TUTU scooters, Service Department really considerate. We talk with TUTU drivers for money, good cell 4 personal 14 knife package National Museum, Palace, monument, places of remembrance in the independence and future meet us to Mae public express line station.

Our first trip to ride out good TUTU car to Mae public express station ticket tomorrow 7: 30 pm Phnom Penh to Siem Reap's ticket, each person 11 knife plus 0.75 fuel surcharge (also increases), after that we went to the TUTU car driver in the central market like next to every restaurant for lunch, this consists of Taiwan and Hong Kong partnership restaurant you can eat dinner and lunch in Cambodia (the restaurant really very good, the environment and taste to, service was good, we from Siem Reap to Phnom Penh also eat here a few meals, and the price is not expensive), we have 4 people point to Cambodia-Curry crab, sour soup, fried beef with green pepper, vegetables and rice, total 15.75 knife, and tip the waiter also don't accept! after lunch back to GH rest-3 pm, we go out of the gate of the GH, TUTU car driver was waiting for us at the door, first to the first attractions: the National Museum.

A enter the gate of the National Museum, each person 3 knife; the National Museum of appearance is the Khmer-style building, features; Museum inside, only one layer, a ring-shaped distribution, the middle is a Lotus pond garden; the exhibition from Angkor-Angkor period early in the Palace of various statues and bronze and other high-value cultural relics.

Imperial Palace, four tickets for 25 knife just starting to make us think it's more expensive, but look at the inside of the building is worth it.

The Palace of all buildings are magnificent, a little similar with Thailand's Palace, of which there to Coronation Hall and the most beautiful brilliant silver Temple, you can come to visit, but you want to take your shoes off and isn't; in between, there is a silver small construction not very handsome, very special, it is said that this is Napoleon's wife for Cambodian King gift from France moves to build here. The Palace there is large, but internal greening and construction mix very well, is a good place to take photos.

A memorial tablet was independently is a free attractions, HA HA! the whole brown red building stands in Sihanouk Boulevard and Norodom Boulevard intersection of central island, its steady heavy styling to a dignified feeling.

In spots on the road edge, see apart of Benz and super sports car and roadside ragged pauper was in sharp contrast to such a scenario, there is a feeling of sadness.

We visit the finished spots take TUTU back to GH, waiting for traffic lights, suddenly a few little beggar Wai up, export is ONE DOLLAR, we ignored, they will reach out to Rob, fortunately we have the driver quickly drove to escape death, is breathtaking.

Back to GH, we organize a back to back, and it grew dark, they hurry to go out and find food. We live surrounded by many small beach eat, but you sure sanitation is poor, unable to accept (and I did eat all accept no lookups!). So we went to a Chinese signs of the restaurant, you can also look up the environment, our reception is a bit of Ministers speak Cantonese, since the restaurant is open, here's the chicken and goose and good seafood, it is strongly recommended to us, but luckily we open room, see everything dishes are 30 to 40 knife, quickly leave, so when we are turtles! later in roadside found a restaurant, there are many local people at dinner drink, we go in, only to find that the local Chinese open restaurant, he is the third-generation overseas Chinese to English barely understand a small amount of Mandarin, in sign language and to point out some of the dishes and beer, beautiful ate a good meal, checkout only 14 knives, really affordable. Rice stuffed wine foot, back to GH beautiful sleep sleep, waiting for tomorrow heading to Angkor!
