Visa
I'm always lazy drag until 5 days before his departure to dongzhimen Embassy visa, because lazy to run twice, direct 300 block throws expedited visa, 11 points, at a nearby café to drink a cup of coffee, 12 points to get the visa.
Bring a passport, the Embassy's Visa Office entrance leads a table, in English only name, gender, nationality, occupation, to the end some basic information, such as a picture, make money with it. Like me have never set foot out of tubie, go to the visa is quite pleased, HA HA. In the Visa Department also encounter a form of "NAME" do not know is what MM, admire her, the more convinced yourself travel should be no problem. If not expedited visas should be approximately 200 block of three working days.Air tickets
Direct buy in 9588, China Southern Phnom Penh by Beijing to Guangzhou, 3050 + taxes = $ 4246 1246; see ctrip vacation products on airline tickets plus one night accommodation in Phnom Penh and Siem Reap one night accommodation around 4300 block looks like, but are not sure whether there will be a temporary situation does not rely on the spectrum, in order to avoid possible temporary panic mode and leave the decision to change, with respect to direct buy ticket, at least guarantee that my trip as planned.
The Visa Office encounter students seemingly are walking holiday product ctrip, but it looks like no one, I have the nerve to say that he is a man, HA HA.Preparations
Read a bunch of Cambodia travel gonglue, I bring things are:
1. buy the weizi SPF50 + sunscreen and repairing lotion tanning, approximately 600 block, personally think that the very necessary; (back after tanning, but didn't burn);
2. take a small flashlight, only the first day of mountain nesbakken sunset is one of Europe's next to the old couple road, then it would be useless, perhaps my vision was so good that many users of travel are stressed the need to take;
3. a large bottle of six apart from God toilet water; Beng Melea collapse mealea Woods photography after do not know the mosquito or moths outside the three packages (no pain or severe), accommodation, etc. are no mosquitoes, completely useless, of course, probably because I was wearing pants every day, and I have not called the mosquito, recommends going to battle fine pinenrou shorts-MM or with a bottle;
4. drugs: what's with a little cold medicine, finally it seems useless, my body and belly are very strong.
5. iPod MP3: apart from the lent me drivers listen for a moment, Robean whole fully heard;
6. toiletries: cleanser prerequisite, the soil is very large, shower gel, shampoo, Hair Conditioner, etc., in Siem Reap in the supermarket you can buy, and what is panting, 10 Yuan a bottle, and internally almost.
7. Watch: convenience at the time, every day and driver about good the next start time, I superimpose in Xidan 77 Street bought block that the block of 20 funky tables, cheap, easy to use, not afraid to steal without fear of stealing.
8. mobile roaming: Beijing Mobile requirements within the past 3 months have no late fee in order to open, otherwise you need to go to the Business Office at 3000 deposit that I have always been two months before a call, do not meet the criteria, the results of that day, near all of the business system is broken, beat 10086 representations at the airport on the way to the successful opening of the international roaming.
Booking accommodation
If the tour cannot determine in advance, it is best to put each lodging has at least one week advance reservation, especially MM one time travel.
I is for 3 days before departure to start email accommodation, as a result, many netizens recommend accommodation are occupied, temporary because forgot Raiders wrong address, led to the first night in Phnom Penh a shabby room, very unhappy, HA HA, good in the Siem Reap and Sihanouk's rooms are very satisfied, you can put the unhappy forgotten in Phnom Penh. Accommodation can refer to users of the recommendation, moreover www.canbypublications.com there are many hotelsAnd Inn, at his or her own email scheduled to budget, most of the Inn or hotel will return mail in a timely manner. From Beijing students must advance reservation of accommodation in Phnom Penh, because the aircraft was delayed, to Phnom Penh for sure is that night 90 00, temporary accommodation is relatively hard to find. If you are a travel, MM is strongly recommended to choose from in Siem Reap and the old market Street near the House bar, so go out at night for dinner and stroll are quite convenient. Siem Reap accommodation I booked online are recommended Sun Sengky Guest House, on the bar street, the famous Red Piano diagonally opposite a Bardo, very convenient. Canbypublications above all have a map, select the time you can refer to a location. I was in Sihanouk evening arrives temporary let motorcycle driver took me when looking for that last lived Holiday Hotel, $ 15 for one night including breakfast, good, very near the shore. In Cambodia, if you choose to compare economy Inn, pay attention to make sure the Windows, many inexpensive room might not have the Windows and other conditions including hot water, air conditioning, etc., I personally hate room without Windows.Bus
Before going to select the Mekong Express, but eventually one never ride in his car.
In Phnom Penh although offered to give me the Mekong, the Inn was Paramount, near the Inn; in Siem Reap is Paramount, Phnom Penh is very cheap GST, these buses are less comfortable luxury, more clean, but I feel that you can accept, with requirements of comrades may still choose the Mekong is better, VIP BUS, huh, huh.Hostel can help sell tickets, including Phnom Penh Inn more charged me $ 2, and I later learned, huh, huh.
Both bus will have a car to the Inn, the departure time is usually postponed, luggage will give ticket mostly fine, Midway will stop to eat, but eat basically fly a lot, you can also buy some mango eat, bring some food better.About drivers
Read a lot of friends of travels, encounter drivers should run simple majority, personal feeling Siem Reap's widespread than more homely friendly in Phnom Penh.
If you are a travel, MM looking for a good driver or very important, it is recommended that the focus of the recommended reference netizens, including my recommendation, huh, huh. I went not too concerned about drivers, feel should not be difficult, but then my driver is also met at the station, lucky to have a good driver. Later know know drivers competition looks pretty intense, Inn or hotel will request or at least I hope you use them recommended drivers, or their arrangements to the station free access driver. Many non-Inn or hotel recommended driver is waiting for guests, basically are waiting outside, does not go in, may also be the reason for competition to avoid arousing suspicion. My situation is as follows:1. in Phnom Penh: first night the airport to the hostel, for advanced booking Inn Express cannot schedule drivers pick me up, and another had arranged a driver to pick my Inn it completely slipped my mind to think that people in other, more complex.
In short I export from the airport by a group of people, just looking for a mouth, drivers, he almost completely is not English, but looks relatively simple. Later I learned that the great night of Phnom Penh and order looks like is not very good, so it is recommended that you try and Inn or hotel with good cause drivers to pick better, most of the Inn and hotel arrangements.2. the Siem Reap: as I was unable to inform in advance Sun Sengky Guest House in Siem Reap, I sat in the coach time and company, and therefore did not cause the driver to the Inn and meet me.
By Paramount's bus to Siem Reap station, I just found a driver that you want to go to Sun Sengky, others seemingly don't want to go, then bus companies of a staff member gave me called a driver to let him take me to my subsequent tour Angkor driver Robean, he gave me the price is $ 1, Inn told me 2 dollars cheaper, at that time I felt he was more concrete. Reach the Inn at the door, paid money I turned to go Robean asked if I wanted to find the driver to Angkor, I hesitated for a second to consider his pick-up offer is very small indeed, open books written three days tour itinerary to him, he quoted price of $ 12 on the first day, second day, $ 20, $ 25 for the first three days, plus afternoon tickets and sunset mountain nesbakken $ 4, a total of $ 61, before I can see all the information that usually adds up to a $ 65-$ 70, so I also have no counteroffer, readily agreed, and about 4 and a half he better pick me to buy a ticket. Later we acquainted, Robean said I was his encounter with little of one of those who do not have owner doesn't allow it, huh, huh. Subsequently prove select Robean is a fortunate decision in Siem Reap travel very much.3. King Sihanouk: prior information on Sihanouk is not too concerned, sitting all day bus arrives at the station of a group of drivers found a casual look simple, forget a few dollars.
But then in Sihanouk went to the sea, feel the driver of Sihanouk offer high, should need to cut the owner doesn't allow it. Come back after reading in Phnom Penh to Cambodian national production of Angkor tourism pamphlet for the owner doesn't allow hope tourists moderate owner doesn't allow, but also pointed out that King Sihanouk's motorcycle and Tuk Tuk price too high, you may need slightly more owner doesn't allow it.4. I am the driver of the Siem Reap Robean
Recommend my drivers in Siem Reap Robean, 26-year-old boy, English Yes, Exchange looks very convenient.
Contact: robean1010@gmail.com; 012409195, you can talk to him is Beijing's Annie recommended. Robean a bit shy, but very homely and friendly, thanks to hisI in Siem Reap travel becomes interesting, huh, huh. Come back after inadvertently in several other in Singapore to study Chinese netizens of the Raiders also saw his name, the time just before I go to Siem Reap for three days.Robean students normally do in Rithy Rin Villa, looks like they are this Inn is also good, some users have recommended travels, quiet, is also one of the few from Siem Reap Cambodia opened one of the Inn, I have not lived not nonsense.
It was private, Robean opened his Tuk Tuk to go out, no one pack in his car, he at the pub, but no wages. Normally he will go to the station to meet people, you need to pay for the three bus companies monthly added up to about $ 100, when others on scooters, but looks like the success rate is not very high, and when Phnom Penh Hotel friend tells him to help free access. By then, a basic understanding of the small talk to friends, students in Robean is the honest and most deserving of the poor, not drinking alcohol, often help friends free guests to see the sunrise. Enjoy listening to music, and my time in the holding cell phone to listen to music, I recommend to his Xu Wei, and catcher of the Muppets, HA HA. No girlfriend, hope, and so have a good job after finding a good girl, Siem Reap Cambodia girl doesn't rely on the spectrum. Don't like a hat, Sun than most people to black. It is also rather young man's personality, don't like to wear the vest, led drivers on the first day was fake police fined $ 1, but still not wear, he said that because the vest too ugly, like the prisoners serving prisoners wear. Personally think that he was still a sensitve to prior to the collapse of the dense column, he said he didn't understand why China and Japan are all going to distant avalanche mealea, go find a collapse of dense column is also good, very fond of, just before he never went in stroll, HA HA. On the whole Robean students belong to say more, but it is a simple type, or more carefully, and every day to go out when asked me if there is a belt tickets, prior asked me if I would be sitting on a motorcycle because of distance, will go to the woman's day gave me with a helmet, the second day will be interpreted as a same-day journey is very flat and therefore did not give me wearing a helmet, and so on, at least better than my madaha carefully. In addition he usually don't like to accompany tourists go shopping temples, but at my request or make an exception to accompany me to the Kbal Spean and Beng Melea, I think it's because I'm a man.Day 1: Siem Reap accommodation, tickets
In Phnom Penh just sleep, Sat 7 a.m.-noon bus, Siem Reap, Sun Sengky not the first room, pick a second window comparisons open room.
Wash after eating to Khmer Family kitchen, his home for delicious Fish Amok, I also had a listen to Angkor beer Angkor Beer, and the addition of a soup, a total of $ 7, a person is a bit much after my lunch or dinner basically in $ 5, a soup with rice and a fruit shake. Before the user travels to pay particular attention to the Siem Reap's cuisine, that found comrades recommended restaurant is basically all on bar street Pub Street, completely do not need to bother to look for food. Angkor Beer advertising language is "My Country, My Beer", personal feel very good, in Cambodia, "My Country" seems to be particularly meaningful. In this restaurant dinner came across several sell girl, little girl Chat with me, said I looked like a Cambodian people, at that time, I also feel very surprised, and later found on my long as Cambodians basic became I hear every day, haha. Robean summed up, said I look like 80% of the Cambodian.4: 30 to go to Angkor buy three day ticket, $ 40, you do not need to take photos, the station that was shot good digital photos printed on the coupon.
Then go to watch the sunset mountain nesbakken, today's sunset is not very shocked, personally think that all of the sunrise and sunset is not enough, just be mentioned too many times, the expectations too high, but don't feel anything shocking sensation, but every day to survive another day sat motorcycle ran in the forest of feeling more impressed me. This one day sit in the Tuk Tuk is Robean, personally feel better by motorcycle, horizons, followed two days I was sitting on a motorcycle, dust problem I don't really mind.Basically, the first day of the settled accommodation, buying tickets, good sleep, if you like watching the Sunrise, then added collapse mealea, followed a few days, basically you need to get up early.
Second day: Siem Reap Angkor, the capital city
Morning sunrise, Angkor Temple Angkor Temple, King City, afternoon Ta Phrom and so that I can have that may blooming read and stroll as Thailand's problems visitors less than usual, and a person seems to be only my stroll, take a walk in silence, sit stops.
Dusk to Angkor temple to watch the sunset, I ask you not to go in Robean look at it, he thought finally agreed to accompany me wandering the door tickets for I said, Cambodian, couldn't understand, get tickets to him. Robean said they thought I might be the Cambodian people, because their people in Angkor do not require tickets and I go to Robean PSAs are confused, HA HA. Sunset nor particularly amazing, sitting on a porch and Robean chat, chat, friends of his work, days of what was good and dark, back to Siem Reap. Night of Angkor visitors come back, here becomes the local entertainment, evening also organizes concerts or something.See temples of the feeling that everyone is different, like places to sit for a while, don't like the place yet, it all depends on personal preference, go to
Before you look at the history of Cambodia, the relevant religious stories, or necessary.Morning from the Angkor temple comes out, just hit the 13th Angkor International Marathon of Sprint, radio began broadcasting the first, second, third, a list of "Emily from England", was very impressed by this girl.
Subsequently asked Robean, he said he used to sign up for once, you can make money along the way, also by motorcycle, buy buy drink eat, purely for fun. To pass on the way to the capital city has been also met a lot of tired but still adhered to the players.Siem Reap on the third day Banteay Srey: female Palace, high shore Kbal Spean Dobbs, Tower, Hudson 's, swords Temple
Female Palace of carving is really beautiful, when I arrived earlier also, only a few people to stroll.
This is the only seat does not require the temples of climbing, very quiet, the lobby is also relatively low, as a result I am in the same lobbies hit two even to the head, the second day, there are points of pain, with a wide edge Hat didn't see, HA HA. More and more visitors, there are several tours of Japan and Korea, guided tours of very enthusiastic. High Dobbs bin Robean goes with me into the mountain, roadside big rock shape is like a frog, Robean said the mountains at the water's edge with a small frog, persecuted in the Shui Pin to see.Siem Reap on the fourth day: Sunrise Royal baths, disintegrating mealea
4: 30 in the morning we set off, on our a Firefly, the Royal Bath, Sunrise, black children began to sell things, taking only a kid I bought postcards.
A number of visitors, the children are more and more, I can only do a thief with a guilty conscience to take out the candy, the little girl to my hand set several kind of straw bracelet, said to me. Fill heap a pile of bags that can put things like cement and lime, bags with China Nanjing or where Chinese characters. The Sun was out, a little boy told me the best angle in front, I followed him in the scum running, he said one word I'll always remember that, he said: "Too many tourists everyday at Angkor Wat, no one ever bought." Every place has a group of children, then I have always wanted to, unless budget well from each person to buy something for $ 1, otherwise can only bring some candy or stationery to them.Collapse mealea, Robean goes with me around, go after he also quite like the place, huh, huh.
Collapse of dense column, not many people did not meet the European tourists. The break several Chinese girls and their Chinese tour guide in our opposite benches at the photographs, one of the girls had and we sat together, and then say to take photos of bench, because she "didn't want to put these three men in the photo shoot," these three means they tour guide, young man, and my Robean, I was excited, without saying a word; tour the boy looked at me and Robean, said: Oh, you sure line. And so they shoot photos go, I tell Robean just happen, do fellow also took me for the Cambodian people, otherwise you may not be as straightforward and say so, HA HA, it seems that I'm really not generally like the Cambodian people. Robean in Siem Reap, just together with me, meet the locals and Robean chat, don't know what I also know they asked where I was Robean, HA HA, this thing is I added a lot of travel, in advance, I have not prepared, one man's lonely journey slowly very unexpectedly becomes warm and cordial.On the way back to Robean asked me today want to go to watch the sunset, I said nothing do not look, he said, take me away from Siem Reap Phnom Krom 9 km to watch the sunset, the mountain is the Lake, you can see some small boat trips, I did not intend to see the floating village, by the way in mountain view.
The mountain is quiet, except we only two people waiting for a tripod shooting sunsets, probably because a rare quiet, want to watch the sunset is very good.Siem Reap on the fifth day: wedding Party
Postponement of a day to Sihanouk, can finally sleep to noon, Robean today for friends to send visitors to Angkor.
In the afternoon I in the streets looking for a driver to silk farm, a very quiet little place, one look at silk production process. The first Hall of the States introduce Fair Trade company free of charge for young people with opportunities to learn silk, sculpture, and other traditional crafts production and provide job opportunities, which the Chinese translation is essentially follow the English word order word-for-Word, see I can't help but smile. See SilkWorm, backyard trees should not a mulberry tree, I do not know what, here in the work of the girls are not so to speak, in roadside encounter two girls in drying cocoon, see I went to tell me that Cambodian, I could not understand, they know I'm not nationals, Oh, the language barrier they only smile each other. Visit finished in shop around, things are also high quality and good prices, think the girls hard also embarrassed buy nothing, just bought a $ 10 pen bag, back in town, go to the supermarket and old market go in a circle, back to the Inn to rest.Robean today will go to a friend's wedding Party, willing to take me to look at, I ask him if I want to bring a gift, he said he would give the money, I don't have to.
7 p.m. He came back from Angkor to meet me at the entrance to the Inn. He married a friend of Sweden, Sweden soon to go live. The wedding was held at the previous day, that day is after the wedding Party, Cambodians married generally there will be two to three-day Party, in the yard swing many tables, the Middle open people are dancing, the bridegroom in the doorGreeted guests and the bride in the far one desk, I mixed up with with the bridegroom handshake and congratulations and him. We and Robean friends sit on a desk, sitting in my left of Richard's mother is Chinese, can speak a little simple Chinese, the young man kept to my food in the bowl, reminds me of his relatives as a child in the House scene, HA HA, there is a kind of leaves mixed cold beef also delicious. Comrades started drinking beer, a glass of wine after the only drink sprite, Robean students really not good at drinking, drink some beer face is red, I asked him to safely ride a motorcycle, he said no problem. I have friends from time to time between to toast, the bridegroom came a tree, eat almost, not know from which Robean coming white with flower pattern of small envelopes, we start to the new package "red packets", in English, a simple greeting and closings.

Then listen to much, there is a mobile phone Robean first very old new butterfly dream cover version, then in coach MTV also saw a relatively young fashionable singer turned out not to hurt me, and a female singers choral, you are my heart's song, is relatively new.Dress code
I personally have always felt that travel or casual leisure trousers is more suitable, December of Cambodia also not hot, over there slowly learn to Cambodian people dress or conservative, of course, Siem Reap street of European tourists are Sling pants, but if one person travel, MM recommended or conservative dress code, travel convenience, Sun protection screens.
T-shirt penetrating gas well cool short-sleeved, usually beginning in February temperatures start to rise in Cambodia, to a maximum of 4 months. More interesting is that one day in the famous Red Piano roadside stalls and next to the dinner, opposite Robean to two wear black skirt hair girl, careful description of eyebrows, bright lipstick, complexion, figure slim. Two people there speak loudly, one also to pull the uncle, next to the dinner of the uncle and opposite the European tourists on a minibus from this to that wrapped up for dinner, totally ignoring my pull his arm a girl. Has always been partial to the silent Robean also watched them huh chuckles, meal asked Robean knew they were Gay, no wonder I always feel that they speak a bit of a strange manner. Then look at the data, in Cambodia there basically hold sympathy Gay and tolerant attitude, in television programs, see the get this topic joke essays, huh, huh, I think the comparison of emotions, people here are so simple, traditional yet forgiving.Sihanouk

From museums to the Palace Square and the River outside stroll, eat seeds, watch people coming and going, the Cambodian Buddhism prevalent today, Riverside a small tower which houses a statue of Buddha, many people queued with Lotus, bowed down off his shoes to go in. Dark, I walked back to the Inn, Inn for dinner, drink, next to several European tourists looking discs should be about the Khmer Rouge, look at a few minutes I felt very depressed, don't want to Cambodia in the last night of nightmares, climbed the stairs twists back into the room to sleep.
