Walking along Phnom Penh Riverside! A summary of safety and caution points🌅🌃

Phnom Penh's riverside is the best spot for a leisurely stroll in the morning or evening! You can feel the tropical breeze while looking at the big Mekong River, and you'll feel like you're in Southeast Asia☀️🌴

Cafes, restaurants, and bars are lined up along the road! You'll have no trouble finding a place to eat or take a break. You can even enjoy a Mekong River view at Starbucks☕️🛶

Most stores accept credit card touch payment, so it's super easy. If you bring a lot of dollars and pay in cash, all the change will be returned in Cambodian local currency (riel), and your wallet will be full...! 💸💥
As long as you have a credit card, you can spend 4-5 days relaxing with about 50 dollars without worrying about the exchange rate🙆♀️ (※However, American Express is almost unusable! I was saved by Rakuten VISA lol)

There are also plenty of tourist attractions! The Royal Palace is right in the middle of the riverside! The golden building stands out ✨ If you walk a little further north, you'll find a temple on a hill called "Wat Phnom". Highly recommended for people who like history and temples!

🌙 [Points to note]
At night, the atmosphere changes a bit in the area north of the Royal Palace. There are more shops for men, and if you go down one street, it's pitch black with no streetlights... It's best to avoid walking alone as a woman ⚠️

Add Phnom Penh's riverside to your travel list! Whether you're a laid-back person or an active person, you'll love it 😉✨
