In the heart of southeast Asia, bordering the Gulf of Thailand, between Thailand, Vietnam, and Laos, the Kingdom of Cambodia is the successor of the Khmer Empire during which the Temples of Angkor, the jewel of World Heritage Monuments, were constructed.

If this peaceful land, criss-crossed by the Mekong, has suffered from frequent historical conflicts, the Khmer people, devoted Buddhists, have been able transcend the past.

Today, Cambodians welcome visitors with engaging smiles in which the sweet scent of frangipani blossoms and the shimmering colors of silk are combined.
