Cambodia

[smifffymoto]

After doing Bangkok to death we are going into Cambodia for 10 days,doing all the usual things,Siam Reap,Angkor wat etc.Have you got a list of good stuff to do in Phnom P that would suit a family with young teenagers.

You have come up trumps with Thailand info in the past,I know you won't let me down.

Killing fields is worth a visit and the Tuel Sleng museum is also pretty good if very sobering

In that case, very sobering indeed. It is an amazing country Cambodia, such a shame that a lot of the things to do and see are tragedy-related. I hope the teenage kids in question are those that will go with their eyes open rather than eyes down at the smartphone with headphones in.

My kids don't even have a mobile never mind a smart phone.We tend to do off the beaten track type of stuff more than the regular tourist stuff hoping to find a more authentic side of the country.

S21 is pretty sobering, worth a visit but not nice seeing all those photos
Hope your kids are up for it.
Go to the Royal Palace too when your there, check opening times, theres a museum next door I believe too (or certainly very close) worth going to.
Boat trips were pretty crap.

worth visiting purely for angkor (and nearly all do), however siem reap is also a pretty cool place in it's own right - and oddly some of the best world cuisine around! I remember eating dinner with a stick insect swaying on the table next to me.

cambodia is amaaaaazing
