Once the heart of a magnificent kingdom that stretched from Vietnam through Thailand, Cambodia is home to a true world wonder -- the jungle-tangled ruins of Angkor and its complex of Hindu and Buddhist temples, palaces, and sanctuaries – that, in its day, dwarfed any city in western civilization.
Today, having survived centuries of war and strife, the land and its people are once again at peace and no tourist to the region should miss a chance to explore its historic relics and its lush green countryside, home to unspoiled nature and unforgettable encounters.
Almost all transactions are in US dollars or Cambodia riel. Traditional markets will take Thai baht. Most hotels, and some guesthouses and restaurants, accept credit cards. Cash advances on credit cards are available at banks. Moneychangers, found around markets, can change other denominations into US dollars. It is a good idea to carry small riel notes for moto (motorcycle taxi), cyclos, snacks and small purchases. Moto drivers who speak English are a good source of information.
