Cambodia

Cambodia occupies a lowland basin in mainland Southeast Asia, shaped by the annual flood-and-retreat cycle of the Mekong River and the vast Tonlé Sap lake. Khmer culture runs deep here — in temple architecture, in the rhythm of Buddhist monastery life, in cuisine built on fermented fish paste and fresh herbs. The twentieth century left visible scars that the country has not tried to hide.

About Cambodia

Overview

Cambodia borders Thailand to the west, Laos to the north, and Vietnam to the east, with a short coastline on the Gulf of Thailand in the southwest. Phnom Penh is the capital. Khmer is the official language, and the riel is the local currency, though US dollars circulate widely in cities and tourist areas. The population is predominantly Buddhist, and temple culture shapes public life and the calendar.
