The rainy season of Angkor roaming — about visas, hotel

Well, the article or to continue, have friends that are looking forward to it, don't write just embarrassed.

Words, remains on the day of departure, the way some ready before it, first of all is the visa.

About visa:

E-Visa: $ http://evisa.mfaic.gov.kh/e-visa/vsindex.aspx?lng=chis $ 25

Very convenient, I am out of the application for payment of money, the evening will receive a visa.

You can print out yourself, but you want to print 2 copies, one copy of the entry, exit or used. Billing needs of international card of Bank of China, should be paid through a channel in Singapore, SMS first paid $ 1, and then is 25 dollars, however I later found that the Bill, $ 1 is not shown, it may be that the nature, so the test there is no need to worry. But many people are worried that electronic check domestic may exit inconvenient, but also see from users from Hangzhou exit successfully, but it is not clear in Shanghai.

Ordinary visa: Visa seems to be $ 370, or your pretty much.

Airport landing check: $ 20, I took the visa, Viet Nam had also considered landing check, but see a lot of comments that people have many, for fear of affecting the other fellow's time (because they have got a visa), or apply for an electronic check.

But the Phnom Penh airport, found landing check seldom, but may be because the rainy season, the Mid-Autumn Festival, is for informational purposes only.

Another is the departure tax, if the aircraft exit Word is $ 25, but I go by land go Viet Nam, a penny is forfeited.

Another is that everyone is talking about transit extortion, really is there, I was asked, but the other three are not, do not know whether it is because I'm a check of the problem, start a fierce asked me how there is only one copy of the visa (I have 2 be together), I said yes, he looked, it doesn't work, then later on I said $ 2, I'm not him alone, he said that the Chinese "10 dollars", I shouted to ask him "why," he would not say anything, but I see the edge of the channel a man gave the money.

Out of the airport and immediately saw wrote my name brands, huh, huh, later to Siem Reap is the same, we all laugh to my name in a foreign land quite famous.

About the hotel:

First of all to say what is LP, this famous book, indeed to the countless mix a lot of convenience, including me, but because the Chinese version of the publication lag problems, so very often or some of the issues.

In particular, hotel information. See all the foreigners on the road almost staff an LP, and staffing a bottle of Chardonnay Livia sunscreen (not used, consider using it). But their LP is 08 Edition, our or 06 Edition, 2 years! led many to write clean, beautiful hotel already dilapidated.

Phnom Penh: we lived two hotels, the first is the Spring, when is GH spring_guesthouse@yahoo.com consider this from the bus station near, we next morning going to start easy points, but in fact are sitting on the bus will be on-site to meet, so regardless.

On this is and is not the same LP, of course, service, or you can arrange a taxi to the airport to meet us, and also can help scheduled bus, the price is nice, but also very enthusiastic, but the room was quite awful, I can say that all the way down the worst of a, room is not big, go on a musty, do not know whether it is the rainy season, and then all the pillows have a taste of terror. If you own with sleeping bags, might also line. Cost is $ 9, double room, air conditioning, hot water.

The second is Okay GH.

To go before the first day only reservation of accommodation in Phnom Penh (since the evening arrives, a hotel to arrange pick up), and Siem Reap, Phnom Penh is later returned in the afternoon, we went to see several LP, finally fixed this, and in particular to say a few words about LP, on a Floating Island, originally in the domestic it would like to subscribe, but found the Mail address on the LP is useless, and later went to the more surprised, hotel in a small alley, is the famous Lake District (Phnom Penh has 2 accommodation more concentrated area, one is the wanco Lakes region, the other is the Tonle district, the Lake is a relatively old GH centrally, but many were very famous GH have very bad, and the area is relatively new, but the price is also expensive), came into the Floating Island is a paved with gunny moist walkway, room was very small, only on the Lake of balconies and then a LP on shadows, may this is a rather original way of life of Cambodia, maybe there are also many foreigners prefer to experience, but for us, it is the courage to live. The street there are many similar GH, some relatively new, but the feeling is not very good, but the street side some small coffee bar looks good. Well, or that we later lived in the bar, is also described on the LP, room, single room $ 10 (the best one, the other for $ 8), triple room $ 15, but still clean, no smell, but our three girls and one said there might be a bug in bed, bitten, and only in the sheet sprinkle a few drops of dew, then OK. The hotel location is very good, 5 minutes on foot you can reach the Palace, near many restaurants, night on the square in front of the Palace of the Zoo, there is a service more mature, you can subscribe to a variety of vehicles, ships and to other cities or countries (I'm from there went to Viet Nam), the price is fair, downstairs there is a restaurant, taste and price. But they do not accept reservations. You can only see their own past.

Siem Reap: www.goldentemplevilla.com G

Olden Temple Villa environment is very good, service is also very user-friendly, room prices are more expensive, but they fixed quite cheap tuktuk.

(Golden temple garden)

Room price: single room $ 15, $ 18 big bed rooms, double rooms with a balcony $ 22, $ 25 double rooms.

Read the introduction, all sisters have called with a balcony, but went there and found little difference, but also his balcony there are 2 types of available directly from the room out of the other is to go out from a common balcony, just hang a small brand known as *** room private. In fact, not very meaningful, because the hotel's public spaces are very good, door hammock, there is also a restaurant, Internet Cafe, each floor of the common balcony is also very strong, there's no need to squeeze in their own little balcony.

(Golden House)

Tell us about their family's welfare: first of all, to live a day of complimentary iced lemon tea, very good to drink, use silver bowls.

Then. 20 minutes per person presented in Cambodia-massage (reservation necessary, if you like charges seems to be $ 5/hour), the Internet is free, although the network is slow, but can be considered the best of a House, in the front side have a separate computer room, around 6-7 computer, there is a restaurant of tea, coffee, fruit (bananas) are free of charge, but eat at any time in the past. Every day people sent a bottle of mineral water, go also sent a bottle, also gave a hempen mounted bottle bag (which can be integrated in the body, the market is to buy it).

(Golden restaurant)

But their family room must be booked, but also respond promptly to their confirmation E-mail, otherwise there is no room at any time.

Management of some confusion, because I have 2 days before, had wanted to wrap other live live, but later discovered that there is indeed very good, other cheaper and this far, you want to continue to live in, asked that the room until you want to move, and that there is no room, waiting for us in a home near (the same street there is a horse, but the room Ei8ht big also very new (there are 2 buildings, a building which was renovated in April this year), but the overall environment is no Golden good and the price is not cheap, twin or offer of $ 25, then we also to $ 18), he also said that there is room. So they continue to live.

Battambang: Royal Hotel

The original search didn't find LP is particularly attractive to my hotel, so it does not, we go by boat from Siem Reap is the fastest to Battambang is a small boat, the boat has two men keep introducing hotel, mainly 2 home, feeling facilities conditions, prices are the same, but one of English ability better, sell more strong, and he describes that is described on the LP.

So we chose this hotel, only later to discover possible another better, it also is a 5-layer around the House, but the update, it should be built, or you may do so without introducing LP. Prices seem to be $ 8 single rooms, triple room $ 15, the asking price seems to be taller, could we threatened, only cheaper. Room is big, the hotel is also a way to live, the largest of its kind. As if we lived in Cambodia in the hotels can offer. Their roof also has a restaurant, feels good, 4 personal evening we sat drinking the shake, chat, very pleasant.
