Cambodia

Angkor Wat and the horrors of the Khmer Rouge regime tend to be the facets of Cambodia which dominate an outsider perspective of this beautiful and complex country, and yet so much more lies waiting to be discovered by those willing to step away a little from the worn tourist trails. Beyond, lie grand royal places, enthralling safari experiences, secretive national parks with fairy-tale waterfalls, a bounty of Buddhist sacred sites and a people whose resilience is matched only by their hospitality. Expect an ever-changing scenic and cultural experience: from remote highland villages to the street cultures of the capital, dazzling colour, chaotic exuberance and idyllic calm await in equal measure.
