A walk around Phnom Penh with photos 2016-2017

Phnom Penh a wonderful city really, it may not be Bangkok, it may not be Ho Chi Minh City, but it has its charms. A city not too large and certainly not a town.

I like to take photos where ever I go, I am not a photographer by any means and I only have a smart phone, but I hope to let people see a city they may not have seen before.

Some rather attractive and modern apartments are being built in Phnom Penh, these 2 apartment blocks are on Street 240.

Yes I think these apartment are rather lovely but perhaps are rather expensive to rent, Street 240.

An old French colonial house on Norodom Boulevard, this photo was taken after it was renovated, these building have become scarce in Phnom Penh.

Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum (S21) From 1975 to 1979, an estimated 17,000 people were imprisoned at Tuol Sleng (some estimates suggest a number as high as 20,000, although the real number is unknown). At any one time, the prison held between 1,000–1,500 prisoners.
