Some of Wellknown People Visit Angkor Wat
Mr. Clinton in CambodiaClinton's hectic schedule only permitted a two hour visit to the Angkor archaeological park. He used his time to the maximum, clambering unaided up the steep monuments and listening attentively to his specialist guide.
A Khmer security guard at the south-east gate of Angkor Wat was thrilled to speak with the charismatic ex-president. He was apparently surprised by the scale of the ruins, especially the colossal Angkor Wat.
"I said hello and chatted with him for a while", said the guard. "He said the stairs were high but the view from the Bakan (the highest level of Angkor Wat) was worth it. He said Angkor was a special wonder and Angkor Wat was paradise".
Clinton was also heard to express disbelief at the incredible extent of the remains, and confessed to being dumbfounded by the building capacity of the ancient Khmers.
Seeing Red
There is another red in Cambodia. The less traveled Ratanakiri is just one of the many faces of this diverse and charming nation.Bordering Steng Treng and Mondolkiri in northeastern Cambodia, Ratanakiri is sparsely populated and famed for its natural beauty. It is known as "the red province". Even the airport runway is made of red dirt.
Another attraction may be found in the former administrative center of the province. Lom Phat is now a quiet and mostly deserted backwater. Much of the town resembles a surreal battleground. Empty schools and hospitals lie abandoned and silent, bomb creters and bullet holes are everywhere.
But now after Nation Wide haven't the war mean it was full peace sine 1993 and after using the WIN WIN Strategy of Mr. Cambodian Prime minister and Ratanakiri especially have a good safety for the Tourists(Domestic and Foreign) are visit these province.
Aside from nature and war relics, Ratanakiri's many ethnic minorities province another fascinating diversion. Traditional villages, untouched by the modern world, live a lifestyle unchanged in millennial. Indigenous handicrafts, along with much else, can be bought at the Ban Lung's bustling market. Getting there is easy. A flight to the province capital's small airport takes a mere hour to cover the 600km from Phnom Phenh.
A visit to Ratanakiri might well give a new meaning to the phrase "seeing red".

Planning To Visit In Cambodia
| |
| Getting to Cambodia Most international visitors to Cambodia arrive by air at either Phnom Penh or Siem Reap. An increasing number of airlines are operating into Cambodia in response to the Cambodian governments open skies policy. The list of international airlines serving Cambodia includes; Bangkok Airways, China Southern Airlines, Dragonair, EVA Air, Lao Airlines, Malaysia Airlines, Mandarin Airlines, Mekong Airlines, Shanghai Airlines, Siem Reap Airways International, Silk Air, Royal Phnom Penh Airways, Thai Airways International and Vietnam Airlines. And now we have more about Airline already step-down in Cambodia especially in Siam Reap International Airport and Phnom Penh International Airport, there are Korean Airline, Japan Airline, etc... For transport to the city centre when arriving at Phnom Penh, you will find taxis outside the arrival hall. The taxi fare from the airport to the city is US$7 and the trip will take about 15 minutes, depending on traffic. In Siem Reap the cost of a taxi into the town area from the airport is US$5. Many of the larger hotels will offer free transport so let your hotel know your flight arrival details in advance. |
Travelling around Cambodia
Air travel, bus, train, boat and taxi are all modes of transport available to tourists in Cambodia. Your selection is best determined by how far you wish to travel, the time you have available, the amount you want to spend and, sometimes, by the weather as during the wet season travel by road especially in the provinces can be very slow.
For getting around the major centers such as Phnom Penh, Siem Reap and Sihanoukville, the most common form of public transport is the motorcycle (motorbike taxi). The motorcycle are fast, cheap (negotiate the price before your trip) and readily available however if you are unfamiliar with sitting as a passenger on a motorbike in heavy traffic, such as in Phnom Penh, then you may prefer an alternative mode.
The quaint cyclo(the bycicle that has 3 wheels) is also common in the cities and is a safer more pleasant way of getting around compared to the motorcycle, although obviously slower! Again, negotiate the price first.
For comfort and safety your best option may be to hire a car, with a driver, and this will cost you around US$20-$25 per day. Your hotel/guest house will usually be able to arrange a car for you.
Where to stay
Currency / Banks / Credit Cards
The official currency of Cambodia is the Riel however US dollars are widely accepted; in fact many businesses set their prices in US dollars. It is however wise to carry some riel around with you for small purchases. The current exchange rate for the riel to the US$ is around 4000 riel = US$1.
The acceptance of credit cards is increasing in Cambodia and you can get cash advances against your credit card at some major commercial banks. There are however no ATM's that will provide access to foreign bank accounts.
