8 Architectural Buildings in Phnom Penh That You Shouldn't Miss

July 17, 2021 Malia Yoakum

Budget-minded travelers will appreciate Phnom Penh's reasonably priced hotel rooms (several top-rated hotels on TripAdvisor offer rooms around $40/night). Explore the city's temples, palaces, and the remnants of its French colonial history. Just outside the city, the The Killing Fields (Choeung Ek) are a reminder of Cambodia's tragic past-- a somber contrast to the booming city of today.

Wat Kean Kleang

Reviewed By worldtravelcoupleemz - Lichfield, United Kingdom

A hidden gem inside Phnom Penh! Not many tourists visit as not many people know about this. We grabbed a tuk tuk for a few hours and made our first stop at a bakery where we grabbed a croissant and coffee. We then made our second stop here and enjoyed breakfast sitting outside with an amazing view. Stunning gold detail in the stairwell on the front and on the sides. Beautiful stories painted on the ceiling and the walls inside! It reminded us of The Sistine chapel paintings. Not quite the same obviously it just reminded us. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit here. No tourists at all.

Housed in a 1937 Art Deco building, this market is a city landmark.

Vattanac Capital Tower

Reviewed By Jedai79 - Singapore, Singapore

Date of visit : 16 Dec 2019 Visited Vattanac Capital Tower because we had wanted to go to the sky bar and its observatory deck. Unfortunately, it was closed and we had to wait for a number of hours for its start of its business hours. Shopping mall with luxury goods retailers such as Hugo Boss, Ferragamo, Bottega Veneta etc. We had originally planned to stay one night at Rosewood Hotel which is the adjoining hotel. We went upstairs on 16 Dec to take a look with the intension to eat at its restaurant. Yes, in our next trip to Phnom Penh, we will definitely stay at Rosewood as it offers breathtaking view of the city.
