Travel a short distance to the Independence Monument, designed in the Angkor Wat style, celebrating Cambodia’s liberation from French rule. Then, explore the stunning architecture, golden roofs, and rich sculptures of the Royal Palace and Silver Pagoda.
Pause for morning tea and enjoy traditional Cambodian treats before heading to the National Museum. Constructed in the 1920s and inspired by classic temple design, it houses artworks, artifacts, and sculptures from Cambodia’s extensive history.
Afterward, visit a traditional restaurant to enjoy more authentic Cambodian dishes. Take your time over the meal before driving along the scenic riverside to Wat Phnom, a temple dating back to 1373 AD. Situated on an 88-foot (27-meter) hill, it is the tallest religious structure in Phnom Penh.
Finally, explore Wat Ounalom. Established in 1443 AD, it is Phnom Penh’s most significant temple and a central point of Cambodian Buddhism.
