Phnom Penh de Sarapen: The Royal Palace | Cambodia

Unknown December 12, 2011

After settling into our place for the night at You Khin House in Phnom Penh, we hurriedly went out to explore the city. We plan to check out the Genocide Museum first, but our tuktuk driver mis-heard our instructions and instead took us to Phnom Penh National Museum. We didn't mind since we will still have another day to spare in this city, on the way back to Saigon from Siem Reap later in the week. After being awed by the vast collection of Angkorian era artifacts, lingas and other statues such as the "Leper King" at the National Museum, we took off on foot towards the Royal Palace which is located only a few meters away.
