A country with a rich heritage and stunning natural beauty, Cambodia has new adventures and discoveries in store each time you visit. Here’s a glimpse on what awaits.

Other major attractions include the Royal Palace in Phnom Penh, Virachey National Park in Ratanakiri and Tonlé Sap Lake.

You can also take in French colonial architecture and pagodas in the capital, Phnom Penh, ride the bamboo train in Battambang, spot Irrawaddy dolphins in Kratie and make the unforgettable ascent up Oudong Mountain.
Picturesque Beaches
There’s plenty of fun in the sun and sand here too. Amongst the best things to do in Cambodia is to spend time at the beaches in Sihanoukville be it Sokha Beach home to luxury hotels or Serendipity Beach known for its nightlife.

Best Times to Visit
The dry season is regarded as the best time to visit and extends from November to April with clear skies and glorious sunshine. That said, the rainy season from May to October has its own allure; it mostly rains only in the afternoon, the scenery is spectacular and the rates and crowds will be less too!
