What should I pay attention to when I want to travel to Cambodia?

Phnom Penh is the capital of Cambodia, and Angkor Wat, one of the seven world-famous wonders, is in another city, Siem Reap. There are bus, plane and boat connections between the two places, but we can only pay attention to the safer and more common land transportation-bus. The bus from Phnom Penh to Siem Reap takes about 8 hours. There are many shuttle buses to Siem Reap at the passenger station in Phnom Penh every day. You can choose the night shift and wake up.

Take 10 day trip as an example:

Day 1 Guangzhou-Phnom Penh

The next day, I visited Phnom Penh, strolled around the palace and market in Phnom Penh, and experienced local life.

Day 3 Phnom Penh-Siem Reap

Day4-Day6 Buy a three-day pass to Angkor Wat (US$ 40), visit the Angkor Imperial City complex, and focus on visiting Xiaowuge Temple (Cambodian national flag pattern, the seven wonders of the world), bayon temple (the famous "Khmer Smile" Buddha statue), Bafeng Temple, Tabulong Temple (the location of grave robbers), Chajiao Temple, sunset on Bakken Mountain, etc. Visit Siem Reap Night Market in the evening.

Day7-Day8 Visit beng mealea, Banteay Srei, Gobbin and Shuishangfu villages in the outer ring of Siem Reap.

Day 9 Siem Reap-Phnom Penh, fly back to Guangzhou.

Day 10 Phnom Penh-Guangzhou

Cambodia was poor because of repeated wars in 1970s and 1980s. The two sisters spend time chatting with the chartered driver on the road. The driver said that the monthly per capita income of Siem Reap was about 150 USD (about 950 RMB), while the price of a breakfast with pasta was about 0.5-/kloc-0 USD. A dinner in Siem Reap costs 2-3 dollars, because there are many tourists and the price is high. Therefore, you might as well spend as much as possible within a reasonable price range, and try not to be too hard when bargaining! There are many things worth buying in Siem Reap Night Market, such as cool and comfortable pants ($5), cotton embroidered tops ($3), Cambodian scarves (1 USD), postcards (1USD/1 USD) and so on.

In Siem Reap, it is suggested to find more small hotels in www.booking.com with a rating above 7.5 and a total of less than 20 rooms. These hotels are generally beautifully decorated, with balconies and swimming pools, and the environment is beautiful and the service is intimate, because there are not many customers. Sister flowers usually consciously avoid big hotels when walking in small towns. They always feel that the service may not keep up with the hotel, and there will be fewer opportunities for tourists to experience the feelings of local people. The price of Siem Reap Hotel is between 150-400 RMB, which is considered as a boutique level in 250 yuan.

Say a few things that must be paid attention to when traveling to Siem Reap.

1. Regarding the debate about whether to buy postcards and small handicrafts sold by children in scenic spots, some friends think that this will encourage parents to let their children drop out of school to sell goods, but sister flowers think that life in Cambodia is really not easy at present. If they can help a little, they will actually have a better living environment. After all, we can't influence parents' decisions, but at least it is meaningful to do something for their food and clothing at once. 2. Some friends reported that some people in the scenic spot had no intention of buying but teased the children to bargain all the way. This really needs to be severely condemned! In addition, don't give children cash directly, cultivate the concept of getting something for nothing, and don't bring candy to children, because they may not be able to repair their teeth if they break them prematurely. If possible, you can also bring some small stationery such as pencils, brochures and erasers. There is also the notorious custom of asking for tips. Floret's attitude is: Never give! But this determination is reflected in action, not attitude. If you don't tip, you should be polite. When he asks you for money, he just smiles, giggles, shakes his head and waves. They won't take any further action. ?
