Cambodia shares a border with Vietnam. These are the two most recognizable cities in Cambodia and while the former is the capital the latter is justifiably famous for Angkor Wat. Both cities are excellent tourist destinations and any first visit to Cambodia should include one or both. Both cities have also been extensively documented and described. Cambodia is also a great country for a road trip. Let’s start this journey from Siem Reap to the South of Cambodia.

If you journey to the south, endless golden rice fields, coffee and pepper plantations, beautiful lakes, salt fields and a national park will welcome you. Some can be admired from the Kep/Kampot mountain summit or while dining in Kep eating some of the best seafood in the world.  In addition, there is also Koh Rong Island and the calm imparted by its isolated existence among the Gulf of Thailand clear blue waters.  If you desire something more than nature and outdoor activities, Sihanouk has a range of casinos.
