Tourist Overview: Due to its politically and economically instability, Cambodia is one of the least known and visited destinations in South East Asia. Since the 1800s, the country has endured French rule, the Lon Nol government, the Khmer Rouge regime and Vietnamese safe. Just remember, the people are very poor here and a living tourist is worth a lot of money. Cambodia borders on by Thailand, Lao and Vietnam, but it's not advisable to cross the borders between these countries. The best way to travel to Cambodia it to fly directly to its capital Phnom Penh. Traveling to Cambodia is almost impossible without a visit here. The city is renowned for its beauty, though recent history took its toll here too. Especially the area surrounding the Royal Palace with the magnificent Khmer towers and the French villas overlooking the banks of the Tonle Sap River is worth a visit. Angkhor Wat is the key tourist attraction of Cambodia. The nearly 900-year-old temple has been described as the jewel of the country, transporting visitors in time and spirit. Since it's rediscovery in the late 19th century it has been competing with monuments like the Taj Mahal to be listed as the eighth world wonder.
