We can come a long the street Basith mountain and turn right to street 51, we can see the newest resort with more than a hundred tables for lunch and dinner.

Oudong Temple at Mount Oudong.

It's a great location with a physical workout due to the many stairs you'll encounter, but it's worth the effort. Many Cambodians will embark on an adventure here to enjoy the peaceful and majestic splendor of stupas and monuments dedicated to past kings for worship, pilgrimage, or both. During my visit, I was fortunate enough to meet many Buddhist monks of all ages, who were generous enough to allow me to take photos. It's a haven for photographers with plenty of places to explore and a variety of subjects to document. The place is beautiful, mystical, and enigmatic. I was already here at 6 AM on my bike and there was no one else there!!! Shooting the sunrise at such a place was a reward for yesterday's 137km on the bike. But be careful, the monkeys are very cunning and aggressive... I warn everyone, be very careful!!! She bit my knee twice. I didn't eat anything and didn't provoke them in any way. It's really lucky that I had the rabies vaccine!!! Above all, protect your children!!! Otherwise, enjoy your time there. Oudong Temple is located at the foothills of Mount Oudong, about 40km northwest of the modern capital Phnom Penh. Oudong was the royal residence and the capital of Cambodia for more than 250 years until 1866. The monumental royal necropolis of several centuries of monarchs is scattered across the prominent split mountain tops that run from southeast to northeast.

Phnom Oudong Temple

#2024wish Today presents an excellent opportunity to explore the captivating Phnom Oudong temple in Cambodia. The temple boasts breathtaking views that are sure to leave a lasting impression. Phnom Oudong, a small ridge of hills near Phnom Penh, was a well-established city by the seventh century. A stone temple was built around the thirteenth century. The capital was moved from nearby Lovek in 1618 and remained there until 1866, when the French convinced King Norodom to move it back to Phnom Penh. The ridge features a crown of stupas, mostly funerary reliquaries housing the ashes of former kings. The newest and largest stupa was built by the current king to house a Buddhist relic from Phnom Penh. Most visits start near the eastern end of the ridge, where a path leads to a small parking area and the base of three stupas. The western end of the ridge contains the remains of the thirteenth-century temple, Preah Atharas. It is advisable to explore Phnom Oudong Temple, where you can witness the splendor of this remarkable architectural masterpiece and have an extraordinary experience. #phnomoudongtemple #ancientcity #historicallandmarks

Silk Island Phnom Penh - Koh Dach 🇰🇭

#winhkflight Mekong Island, locally known as Koh Dach, is where you can head to if you wish to take a break from the hustle and bustle of the Cambodian capital. About 15 km north of the city centre, Koh Dach offers a world of peace and tranquillity, bounded by views of rice paddies, vegetable farms and fruit orchards. This 10-hectare island is also known as one of the prominent centres of traditional handicrafts in Cambodia, with artisans engaged in silk weaving, pottery, woodcarving and dyeing in its villages. One of the not-to-miss communes of the island is the country’s silk weaving centre, as there are thousands of silk weavers producing quality silk under their stilted houses. For a fun experience, be sure to try to weave silk on spinning wheels made using bicycle parts, in addition to buying silk fabric directly from producers. I want to travel to Hong Kong to explore the local craft and art!
