Photo shows a macaque monkey lit up by a sun ray. It sits behind a staircase in front of a richly decorated two storey tower. The tower is richly decorated with figures and flower patterns. The tower is flanked by green trees. The sky is lightly clouded. Cambodia is as safe, comfortable and kind as ever. Angkor and Battambang warmly welcomes visitors as the home of several cultural world heritage sites and good food.

When your home is a temple

Temples in Cambodia are marvels of intrinsic details, but sometimes the cohabitants are, too.

Like here.

The monkeys at most of these temple are peaceful, they are safe and have access to food and water.

An evening of seafood Khmer BBQ

Tiger shrimps, squids and veggies on the BBQ, freshly steamed worldclass khmer rice and M’me Khmer chefs own, home made dipping sauces.

And a beer.

That is great eating and comfort food and drinks.

In the background there are a framing forest with some buildings, and in the background, there are some rolling hills marking the border with Thailand. It is a sunny day with blue sky with some light clouds. Cambodia is as safe, comfortable and kind as ever. Angkor and Siem Reap warmly welcomes visitors.

Fishing in the morning sun

The countryside near Anlong Veng, north in Cambodia, is very pretty in itself.

Add in a lake, some people and animal going on with their peaceful business in the setting sun. It turns incredible beauty.

Photo shows a city street at early night. The sky is still deep blue just before it changes to night darkness. The blue colour of the hour just after sunset is enhanced by a large painting in blue variations and black of a Bayon portrait. These stylised Buddha-like portraits cover the facade of Bayon Temple. Small shops on the right side and in the background sells arts and artifact as expected in a night market. A couple, the lady in deep blue blouse, are walking away from the photographer. They are passing under a neon lit sign telling "Night Market. Cambodia is as safe, comfortable and kind as ever.

Photo shows two compact concrete buildings in bright colours. The main colours are yellow and orange. The contrast colour is light blue on the front wall and gate pillars, the handrails and the foundation concrete. There are some Khmer words written over the door on the closest building. The second building has 2 floors, and the second floor have a balcony, were the handrail is in yellow and deep red. The building are framed by trees. It is a sunny day, but the sky is most overcast with some blue spots. Both houses have a well used broom leaning to the handrail. Cambodia is as safe, comfortable and kind as ever. Angkor and Siem Reap warmly welcomes visitors.

At the roots of the Chenla kingdom

The Sambor Prei Kouk complex shows the bridging development from the Funan Civilisation to the Angkor Khmer Empire.

These temples were state temples in the old capital Isanapura of the Chenla kingdom.

Sunrise over Kep

Kep is a peaceful area, most famous for its seafood dishes and epic national park.

You go here for a day on the beach, see sun rise, biking in the NP, sightsee old colonial villas, visit islands.

It is quite all right to enjoy the sunrise here too.

To the left behind the wall there is a large public building built in modern Khmer pagoda style. To the left there is a tall light mast with huge lights. To the right there is a small group of Khmer ladies sitting on a picnic blanket, and one standing. It is a slightly overcast night, and the sky is deep blue with clouds in a lighter blue colour. The square lit by the large light mast has a warm tone contrasting the colder blue colour. Cambodia is as safe, comfortable and kind as ever. Angkor and Phnom Penh warmly welcome visitors.
