BUDDYMOON DAY 549/1000 (VLOG 157)

We have finally made it to the capital of Cambodia known as Phnom Penh. This city has a rich history and one that we were keen to explore.

Phnom Penh, Cambodia’s busy capital, sits at the junction of the Mekong and Tonlé Sap rivers. It was a hub for both the Khmer Empire and French colonialists, but it has a dark side. In 1975, a guy by the name Pol Pot, a communist, decided to evacuate the whole city and aimed to kill everyone who was linked to the old government or has educated, so basically an Asian Hitler.

He brought these people to a primary school which he converted into a torture centre known as Tuol Sleng, S21 prison. Here, he tortured people to right their confessions of who they knew so Pol Pot could find more people that he believed should be killed.

Our visit to Phnom Penh was not only to understand it's history but also to explore it a little as a first timer in the great city and see what it's like being a tourist in Phnom Penh. We also had a mission of wanting to find Lok Lak to eat and find a boat on which we could take a sunset cruise down the Mekong and Tonle Sap river.
