Stepping into the Royal Palace of Cambodia is like entering a world of opulence and history. Located in the heart of Phnom Penh, this stunning complex is a testament to the country’s rich cultural heritage and royal legacy. Built in the 19th century, the palace is a masterpiece of Khmer architecture, with its golden spires, intricate carvings, and lush gardens.
I marveled at the Emerald Buddha and the life-sized gold Buddha adorned with thousands of diamonds. The Throne Hall, with its towering spire and ornate interiors, was equally breathtaking. The Royal Palace is more than just a tourist attraction; it’s a symbol of Cambodia’s resilience and pride.
