PHNOM PENH




Business Class Singapore Airlines is fantastic! Awesome service and plenty of time to sleep between Brisbane and Singapore.
Arriving in Phnom Penh, Cambodia is not dissimilar to arriving in Bali.
We were picked up at the airport and taken to our hotel – which is pretty central. After a quick shower we took off to the night markets where you can buy everything from food to rip off labels and local produce. We sat in on the mats in an open air kind of restaurant with all the locals and tried some of the great food. Decided to give the pigs ears a miss but plenty of other great food with awesome flavours.
Took a walk back along the river and noticed many of the locals doing aerobics workouts along the front. They pay a small fee and ‘work out’ together. The instructor pays a small fee to the authorities so they can use the public space.
Phnom Penh is a hustling, bustling city until quite late in the evening.
