Wow! It's temple time. This is what we came for and boy were we impressed! I have wanted to see the temples for 10 years. Many people say that they get templed out within a day Posted by iniandnick in Ineka & Nick's Awesome Adventure | Mar 9, 2009

The Angkor ruins feature heavily in most South East Asian itineraries. A vast area covered with hundreds of temples, all served from the hub town of Siem Reap. Whilst some will pass through here on their backpacking tour and camp Posted by brads-anna in wandering around the world | Jan 25, 2009

Here we are in Cambodia! After an amazing flight on Air Asia we arrived reasonably refreshed and quite relaxed. Air Asia are an incredible airline. We had prepared for the worst considering how cheap our tickets were Posted by iniandnick in Ineka & Nick's Awesome Adventure | Mar 8, 2009

If the Killing Fields and S-21 represent the low point of Khmer history, then the Temples of Angkor surely represent the pinnacle. Angkor, built largely in the 12th and 13th Centuries, is a city of mainly Hindu - with some Posted by AmyLou2009 in Amy & Lou vs. The World | Mar 6, 2009

It's always exciting to enter a new country, to see how it varies from the one you just left. On first impressions Cambodia looked the same as Laos; with the same wooden shacks on stilts and the same cavalier attitude Posted by AmyLou2009 in Amy & Lou vs. The World | Mar 6, 2009

Next stop Kampot - an old riverside town with a lingering colonial legacy. Street after street lined with rundown french era villas & shops painted in mustard yellow or peachy orange (okay, perhaps not the one in the photo). Slow Posted by beefnlamb in beefnlamb | Mar 2, 2009

While our stay in Cambodia has been short, it has also been very enjoyable and memorable. It's also been the first time I felt like we were really just vacationing.

We made it safely to Cambodia yesterday, and after spending the rest of our day exploring the town of Siem Reap, we got up at 445 this morning to head to the temples of Angkor Wat to catch the sunrise. Posted by Kellrad in Conrad and Kelli's Excellent Adventure | Mar 4, 2009

Today was a milestone. When booking our tickets for this trip, we agonised over whether to come to Cambodia. The main reason for the concern was that Siem Reap, where the Angkor temple complex is based, is a high risk Posted by mancmiller in Around the world in 187 days | Mar 2, 2009

Arriving into Phnom Penh we were really quite excited to be in a new country and we had high hopes for not just being seen as walking $'s. Phnom Penh is actually quite a nice city Posted by FiColes in Fi & Bryn's Big Trip | Feb 3, 2009
