Things to Do in Phnom Penh

So here you are ready for your holiday in Phnom Penh, “The Pearl of Asia” and have not a clue what to do. You can start by checking out the National Museum of Cambodia, where one of the world’s largest collections of Khmer art is housed. The museum holds the bronze statue of reclining Vishnu and a massive stone head from the Khmer Empire.

When you’ve had your fun at the museum, hop on a boat for a nice cruise along the Mekong. Get a fantastic four-wheeled steed from lastminute.com.au’s Phnom Penh car hire options and head for Sisowath Quay, where you can catch a boat. Float along while checking out the great views of the Royal Palace and the National Museum. You’ll even have a chance to explore some of the remote fishing villages further up the river. Want a more beachy escape? Extend your trip for a couple of days when you snag one of our great Koh Samui holidays in the Gulf of Thailand.

Shopping, Dining & Nightlife

Phnom Penh holidays shouldn’t just include sightseeing. You’ve got to stock up on some epic souvenirs! As soon as you walk into places like Olympic Market you’ll find lines of vendors looking to sell you anything from regular T-shirts and postcards to kramas and silver curios. Want some knock-off electronic goods? No problem, because this place is full of them. Or you can try your bargaining skills at the Russian Market and pick up a cool tea set.

The food? Oh, the food is amazing. Make your way back to the riverfront of Sisowath Quay and sample all you can from the food vendors. Go for a nice bowl of kuyteav. Then cross the quay and make a stop at another stand for a plate of bok l’hong (green papaya salad). Holidays to Phnom Penh aren’t full if you don’t eat some Kampot pepper crab. Just sit down at a restaurant and order it. You can thank us later.

After eating in Sisowath Quay, wait there until night falls and follow the sound of music to one of the night spots. Head up Phnom Penh Tower to the sky bar for a cocktail with a view. Get to know some of your fellow travellers when you grab a mojito from the Foreign Correspondents’ Club, which is also along the river in Sisowath Quay. When the first mojito knocks you on your booty, pick yourself up and order another one—hey, you’re on holiday!
