Phnom Pehn

 Before the Khmer Rouge ravaged the country, Cambodia's capital was known as the Pearl of Asia. The city is slowly rebuilding and there is plenty to see. Head down to the Silver Pagoda at the royal place and walk on silver. To unravel Cambodia's dark history, head to the Tuol Sleng Museum. There are numerous food stalls around the city where you can experience food infused with Cambodia's unique flavours. After you have lined your stomach, have a drink or three at one of Phnom Peng's lively bars.
