Cambodia Travel Guide
The scenery is beautiful and abundant,shaped by landscapes of lush green forests and jungles,banana plantations,agricultural fields and mighty rivers. People here live modest and simple lifestyles and the populace are largely rural. It is not a place of fast and efficient transport or luxurious hotels and resort living. Infrastructure is basic (much of it having been destroyed) and travelling between destinations can be quite an experience - fun for some and frustrating for others.
