[cambodia 2010] royal palace, phnom penh

cambodia travel diary day 4

our first day in phnom penh began with exploring the royal palace. i love the khmer architecture, it's so unlike anything that i have ever seen. it was a beautiful day as well, the sky was a gorgeous blue, the perfect backdrop for the golden palace. and my oh my, the royal palace was filled with priceless treasures! the silver pagoda had all this rare buddhist treasures as well as the silver floor. and there was a small museum where royal artefacts were on display. i was a bit freaked out by how cavalier the cambodians are with displaying their royal treasures though.
