Wat Phnom is the birthplace of Phnom Penh. It is about 100 meters high. On the top of the mountain is a statue of Lady "Pen" (the English word for Phnom Penh, Penh), which is one of the symbols of Phnom Penh. Standing on the top of Tashan, you can overlook the entire city of Phnom Penh. Wat Phnom is located on the top of a mountain. A 30-meter-high pagoda stands on the top of the mountain, making it even more majestic. At the foot of the mountain is a small park for citizens to relax. Legend of Tashan: According to legend, in the 14th century, a woman named "Ben" found a Buddha statue that drifted here along the Mekong River due to a flood. She built a temple on a hill to worship it, and it gradually developed into a prosperous town. In the 15th century, the country's capital was moved from Angkor to this place and officially named "Bai Nang Ben", meaning "Mountain of Lady Ben", and the local Chinese called it "Phnom Penh".
