Located beside 3 rivers in Phnom Penh Cambodia, Royal Palace is an icon not to be missed when you visit the capital. It is also the residence of the current king.

With its classic Khmer roofs, lush gardens and ornate gliding, you may witness similarities with its neighbour Royal Palace in Bangkok. Spanning over 170,000sqm, it was built between 1866 and 1870 when the capital was moved to Phnom Penh.

On Sundays, you can witness large crowds of Khmer country siders come here to pay their respect. When visiting the palace, be mindful of your attire to cover below knees and elbows.
