Phnom Penh
At 8:00 am you will be picked up from your hotel for a day sightseeing in Phnom Penh to visit the most highlights of Phnom Penh including Royal Palace, a compound built in 1866 by the Predecessors of King Norodom, which is the most conspicuous feature and also one of impressive colorful Khmer-style Palaces. Silver Pagoda (The Emerald Buddha temple), displays plenty of Buddha Statues that were decorated and made of diamond, emerald, gold, and silver. Continue to visit the notorious genocide Tuol Sleng Museum. The museum displays include room after room of these photographs of men, women, and children covering the walls from floor to ceiling; virtually all the people tortured were later killed. After a lunch break on the spot, continue to the Killing Field of Cheng Ek, the site where Khmer Rouge soldiers killed the innocents after imprisoning and torturing them in Tuol Sleng. The visit to these sites provides us with a deep insight into the painful bloody rule of the Khmer Rouge. In the late afternoon, enjoy the sunset cruise along the Tonle Sap River in front of the Royal Palace and navigate through the Mekong River. This cruise tour is the best way for you to see the fast growth of Phnom Penh and also the life of fishermen living in their boats on the other side of Phnom Penh. Transfer back to the hotel, and overnight in Phnom Penh.
In the morning, pick you up from your hotel with your guide and enjoy the tour by Remork (Tuk Tuk) to Koh Dach which is known as Silk Island. Crossing Tonle Sap River by Chroy Changva Bridge then drive to the boat pier where you cross to Koh Dach. Have a nice walk to visit the village of traditional handicraft production of silk dyeing & weaving, observe the activities of their daily life, and visit the pagoda and agriculture farm along the river to enjoy the scenery of green vegetation and fishing village. Return back to Phnom Penh by Remork to visit Wat Phnom (Phnom Daun Penh), a pagoda founded in 1373 for the Buddha statues and later give its name to the capital Phnom Penh. After the lunch break, visit the Independence Monument, which was constructed in 1954 after the Cambodians took their country back from the French colony, and the Memorial Statue of the Late King Sihanouk. Continue to Russian Market (Psah Tuol Tom Pong), a lively outdoor market where you will find antiquities, silver and gold jewelry, gems, silk, kramas, stone and wood carvings, as well as T-Shirts, CDs, and other souvenirs.
