Strolling around Phnom Penh
Jean-Michel Filippi
Since Phnom Penh is conspicuous in its absence of tourist guidebooks and visitors usually spend about two days to see Wat Phnom, the Royal Palace, the National Museum and the Tuol Slaeng (S 21) Museum, the need for a new much richer way of glimpsing history was recognized and has been created. This book was written to offer a striking alternative: seven strolls through time and space, in the rich, colorful and dramatic history of Phnom Penh where history, anthropology, politics and anecdotes come together with rich glimpse into the past.
