Phnom Penh was our last stop in Cambodia, it's the country's current capital. The hub of Khmer Empire and french colonists, located on the junction of Tonle Sap and Mekong river.
In the mere heart of cambodian jungle lies s a treasure beyond any traveller's imagination.
The ruins of a grand civilization founded in early XIXth century were forsaken for hundred of years until a French explorer accidentally stumbled upon them on an excursion of an utterly different purpose. I can only imagine his shock. What he found were the remains of Angkor Thom and Angkor Wat.
Some places just hit you so hard you know you will remember them for the rest of your life. This was one a kind experience I've had in Kampong Phluk, Cambodia. It makes you reconsider all of your first-world problems and become a little more humble about yourself, and this might sound pompous but I can assure you that it's true.
