China calls Cambodia telephone/mobile phone: country code (00855)+ area code (Phnom Penh 23 Siem Reap 63 Sihanoukville 34)+ telephone/mobile phone number. If your mobile phone has been enabled for international roaming, you can use it locally in Cambodia, for example, dial the local mobile phone number directly with your mobile phone. If you need to call back to China, please dial the mobile phone number: +86. If making a landline call: +86 2 1 landline.

There is a big temperature difference between morning and evening (it is windy at night), so it is recommended to add a coat.

It is recommended to wear long sleeves, trousers and sports shoes for outdoor travel to avoid sunburn. It is best to take an umbrella when traveling, which is both sun-proof and rain-proof. Especially for female tourists, the following items are essential: sunscreen lotion, deep cleansing facial products, moisturizing products for repair, sun hats, sunglasses, wet tissues and so on.

Buddhism is the national religion of Cambodia, and the monk king and monks are generally respected. When visiting Buddhist temples, you should dress neatly, take off your shoes and don't wear a hat. Avoid touching other people's heads with your hands.

Wedding ceremonies are common all over the country, that is, standing on the chest with two palms together and bowing slightly. The height of the fingertip depends on the identity of the other person. The higher the identity of the other party, the higher the height of the fingertips. You can also shake hands in social situations.

Cambodia has no natural disasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis and typhoons. The local traffic facilities are relatively backward, the roads are narrow, there are many cars, the traffic order is chaotic and traffic accidents occur frequently. Whether you travel by car or by local public transport, you should pay attention to the traffic conditions.

There are many restaurants in Cambodia, mostly in the form of roadside stalls, and the sanitary conditions are difficult to guarantee. It is recommended to avoid eating at roadside stalls as much as possible.

Gastrointestinal diseases are common local diseases. It is suggested to take preventive measures in advance, prepare medicines and drink bottled purified water.

Cows and buffaloes can't be harmed here. Cambodians believe that if someone hurts them without authorization, they will be punished, just like getting sick for no reason.

In Cambodia, the US dollar and Cambodian currency (riel) are common. Generally, 1 US dollar can be exchanged for 4,000 riel (subject to the exchange rate of the day).
