Video: Cambodia
FORMAT: NTSC What's this?
Traveller Ian Wright ventures to the heart of South East Asia, to Cambodia - a country which has endured a history of famine, civil war and mass genocide, but in recent years has become increasingly popular as a tourist destination.
Ian starts his journey with a trip through the mango swamps to the oldest temple in the country Phnom Da where he witnesses the Buddah’s Day celebrations. His journey continues to Kampot at the foot of the Elephant Mountains - once a Khmer Rouge stronghold. He catches a train to Sinhanoukville, then travels by boat to Koh Rong, where a local chef prepares a fantastic seafood dinner. Next stop is the cultural hub of Phnom Penh, followed by Senmonorom for a traditional hill tribe wedding.
Ian ends his journey at Lake Tonle Sap, taking in Lake Sra Srang, Ta Promh, The Bayon and the famous religious site of Angkor Wat.
