🇰🇭 2 days 1 night in Phnom Penh, where can I go?

#Share a 2-day, 1-night travel plan in Phnom Penh. Let's see where to go. 🚨 Things to know before going to Phnom Penh 💵 Use US dollars. Banknotes must not have a money exchange stamp. 🛺 We will mainly use Grab for transportation. It is very convenient. You can pay via credit card. Before getting in the car, always check the license plate with the driver! 📱 Do not play with your phone while walking in public. 🎬 Okay, let's start!!! 1️⃣ Day 1: Wat KeanKleang - Wat Sampov Treileak - Wat Phnom - Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum - Central Market - The Elysée 📍 Wat Kean Kleang: Wat Kean Kleang or Golden Temple is about 10 minutes from the center of Phnom Penh. It is a peaceful temple and suitable for worshiping and experiencing the religious atmosphere. The temple is golden in color. There are beautiful photo spots. ⏰ Opening and closing hours: 06:00 - 18:00 💵 Admission fee: Free ❤️ It is not a very large temple. It takes no more than 30 minutes to finish. 📍Wat Sampov Treileak: Not far from Wat Kean Kleang, the unique feature is the "golden boat". ⏰ Opening and closing hours: 07:00 - 17:00 💵 Admission fee: Free ❤️ It is a very small temple. Walk and take pictures for 5 minutes and you are done. 📍Wat Phnom: It is the most famous temple in Phnom Penh. It is historically important and a symbol of Phnom Penh. View of the city from above ⏰ Opening hours: 07:00 - 17:00 💵 Admission fee: 1 USD ❤️ It is recommended to walk around. There are places to take pictures around. It takes about 1 hour. Or if you are a photography lover, it may be longer. 📍 Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum: A museum that tells the story of the genocide under the rule of the Khmer Rouge. A place that reflects the cruelty of Cambodian history ⏰ Opening hours: 08:00 - 17:00 💵 Admission fee: 5 USD ❤️ It is actually very large. You can buy an audio to listen to the explanation. But we did not stay long because we saw the pictures and felt very depressed. So we spent only an hour. 📍 Central Market: A popular market in Phnom Penh, full of local products, jewelry, clothes and souvenirs. Suitable for buying souvenirs and experiencing local culture ⏰ Opening hours: 07:00 - 17:30 💵 Admission fee: Free ❤️ We did not get anything from here Because the items sold are similar to those in Thailand, I didn't buy anything. 📍 The Elysée, Koh Phet: It feels like being in Europe. There is the Arc de Triomphe. All the buildings are built in European style. ⏰ Opening and closing hours: None 💵 Admission fee: None ❤️ It is recommended to come in the evening because the sun is not too hot. It is very beautiful to walk and take pictures. There will be street food for sale. 2️⃣ Day 2: Wat Ounalom Monastery - National Museum of Cambodia - Independence Monument & Statue of King Father Norodom Sihanouk - Royal Palace of Cambodia - AEON Mall - Back home 📍 Wat Ounalom Monastery: An important Buddhist temple in Phnom Penh. It is home to monks who practice Dhamma and has a peaceful atmosphere. ⏰ Opening and closing hours: 06:00 - 18:00 💵 Admission fee: Free ❤️ The temple is in the city near the Royal Palace. The temple is not large. It doesn't take long. We came to pray for blessings. 📍 National Museum of Cambodia: A museum that exhibits art and antiques that are historically important to Cambodia. Suitable for those interested in culture and art ⏰ Opening hours: 08:00 - 17:00 💵 Admission fee: 10 USD ❤️ It's not a very big museum. It doesn't take long to walk around. 📍 Independence Monument & Statue of King Father Norodom Sihanouk: An important monument reflecting the declaration of independence from France and the monument of King Father Norodom Sihanouk, which is important in Cambodian history. It is a symbol of Cambodia's fight for independence. It is a spot with beautiful architecture and a popular photo spot. ⏰ Opening hours: Open 24 hours a day 💵 Admission fee: Free ❤️ I recommend going in the evening or at night because during the day when we went, it was very hot. The sun was scorching. We took 5 minutes to take a car. I really couldn't take it. 📍 Royal Palace of Cambodia: A beautiful palace full of exquisite architecture It is an important historical site and is also the residence of the Cambodian king. ⏰ Opening hours: 08:00 - 11:00, 14:00 - 17:00 💵 Admission fee: 10 USD ‼️ Very important, go at 8:00 in the morning or 14:00 in the afternoon because we went around 10:00 and the officers did not allow us to enter because they had a break between 11:00 and 14:00. So plan well. The palace is very large. We spent almost 2 hours walking around. 📍 AEON Mall: Shopping before going home ⏰ Opening hours: 10:00 - 22:00 ❤️ I recommend buying some pepper to take home. It's delicious. ❤️ ✈️ Bye-bye, go home. #PhnomPenh #Cambodia
