Cambodia
Cambodia is one of the least known and traveled to destinations in the South East Asia due to its shaky political and economical situation. Cambodia borders on by Thailand, Lao and Vietnam, but it’s rough travel to go overland between these countries. The most comfortable way to travel to Cambodia it to fly directly to it’s capital Phnom Penh. Much of Cambodia is relatively flat with vast tracts of land given over to rice production. Other areas of Cambodia are mountainous, including the Dangrek, Cardomen and the Elephant mountain ranges. Cambodia has places of interest all over the country but the principle attractions can be divided into three main areas: Phnom Penh, Siemreap (Angkor), and the South coast. That said, more and more people are heading off the beaten track and venturing into the hill tribe regions of Rattanakiri, Mondulkiri, and the Kirirom National Park.
