[Review] Cambodia

 Have you ever heard of  "the secret of Angkor Wat"? That's the reason why I went to Cambodia.  
 I just wanted to see it for myself and figure out!
 Anyway, absolutely it is the fact that Cambodia has woderful place:)

 First, when I arrived at there, I was very surprised at the scene! (look at the picture!!)
The sky was overspread with white clouds. lt looks like "Som-Sa-Tang(famous sugar candy in South Korea)" And the green grassland extends endlessly. It was the most beautiful I've ever watched.


 If you go there, you can also explore the chaotic and energetic and always fascinating capital city of Cambodia. Phnom Penh, once known as the Pearl of Asia, boasts a gorgeous Royal Palace and its famous Silver Pagoda.
 besides, I visited the National Museum which hosts a vast collection of Khmer antiquities, and drop by the Independence Monument.

 And the biggest one, the legendary temple of Angkor Wat, the largest religious monument ever built and other surrounding temples. I saw one of the most spectacular temples in the world, Angkor Wat, built in the early 12th century. it is considered a masterpiece of Khmer architecture.
 Also I could see the traces of Cambodia's historic religious culture  to the majestic walled city of Angkor Thom. It was amazing..!!

 And then, I went to Cambodia's Great Lake, the Boeung Tonle Sap (Tonle Sap Lake). I heard that it was the most prominent feature on the map of Cambodia. 
Of course, I took a ride on the boat. But, the water in this lake was not very clear I had expected. haha..

 The last one is Cambodia's Night Market. I heard "Angkor Night Market" established in 2007, was the first night market to open in Cambodia. I could enjoyed  Instead of department store, I could find buildings that was made of natural materials and designed beautifully in Khmer style. And there were lots of Cambodia style's clothes and some accessaries:) I bought some:*)
