- Royal Palace - This is the residence of the Cambodian royal family and a national emblem. The journey begins in the exquisite royal gardens, adorned with tropical flora and sparkling spires. Visitors enter the Throne Hall, the venue for royal receptions and the coronation of the Cambodian king. The tour continues past the Napoleon III Pavilion, an iron structure gifted by the French emperor in the 19th century. The Silver Pagoda, named for its 5,000 silver tiles each weighing 1kg, is next. Inside, some of the nation’s most treasured artifacts are displayed, including a life-size gold Buddha encrusted with 9,584 diamonds, the largest being 25 carats.
- Wat Phnom Daun Penh - Wat Phnom Temple was established by Daun Penh (Grandma Penh), a prosperous widow who, in 1372, found a log containing five Buddha statues in a river. She ordered the elevation of her land to construct a temple for these statues. Eventually, Grandma Penh and the villagers built a temple atop the hill, placing the four Buddha statues inside, while a standing statue of the goddess was enshrined on the eastern side of the hill. This site became sacred, where people come to offer blessings and prayers.
- Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum - Formerly a high school, Tuol Sleng was transformed by the Khmer Rouge into a center for interrogation, torture, and death. Today, it stands as a museum of torture, reminding visitors of the horrific events that occurred in Cambodia. Of the 17,000 people who entered this prison, only seven survived to recount their experiences.
- Choeung Ek Genocidal Center - Prisoners from Tuol Sleng were taken along this route to their fate. Once an old Chinese cemetery, Choeung Ek was converted into an extermination camp for political prisoners. The remains of 8,985 individuals were exhumed from mass graves and are preserved in a memorial stupa here. Despite its tragic history, it is a serene place for reflection on the sorrowful events that affected Cambodia and its people.
- Independence Monument - Constructed in 1958 and inaugurated in 1962 during the Sangkum Reastr regime, the Independence Monument honors those who sacrificed their lives for the nation’s welfare. Its cool, tranquil ambiance makes it a popular and captivating destination.
