By Unseentra Mar 01, 2020 1267

Phnom Penh is a huge city, people from all over world regularly visit this city when they are on vacation in Cambodia. Thus, somehow, you cannot avoid them if you are visit the exact typical attractions as they are planning to spend their days. Here, we give you 3 alternative destinations to escape from all those madness.


1.      Oudong Mountain


Oudong was the previous capital city of Cambodia and it is popular among local and international explorer to get away for the weekend or spending half day around to see the local lifestyle and learning about history. People typically spend half day or full day relaxing and enjoying local food, which can be found at the foot of the mountain. Moreover, people love cycling there.



2.     Chiso & Ta Prohm temple


Both of these temples are great complementary destinations for those who alluringly desire to get best of their holiday differently rather than posing in the same spot as million others. Chiso and Ta Prum temple are both located about 2 hours’ drive from the city of Phnom Penh and they were built in between 11th and 12th century.




3.     Kirirum National Park & Homestay Chombok


Spending the night there is ideally for those who seek the quietness and nature getaway. Kirirum National Park is about 110 KM away to the west of Phnom Penh city and it is covered by thick forest and pine tree. Spending the night or two in this silence finding yourself while at the meantime experiencing extraordinary homestay at the Chombok Community, it is definitely a great alternative among all.
