Cambodia’s capital vibrant drinks scene is exploding with speakeasies, micro-distilleries and swanky hotel bars such as Rosewood Phnom Penh’s Sora sky bar. Looking down from the 37th-floor expansive terrace of Rosewood Phnom Penh’s Sora sky bar, the sprawling urban metropolis comes in full view. Cambodia’s capital buzzes with a youthful population, a swarm of two-wheelers and tuk-tuks. Interspersed in the traffic are glitzy cars, big pick-up style vehicles and one Rolls Royce the city boasts of.

Among the bustle stands the tallest building of the city, the ultra-modern Rosewood Hotel boasting 175 luxuriously appointed rooms complete with plush spa facilities, dining venues and seven bars, of which Sora sky bar stands out. Quite literally, as its outdoor terrace projects out of the building like a futuristic spaceship’s landing bay.

The National Museum of Cambodia houses one of the world's greatest collections of Khmer cultural material including sculpture, ceramics and ethnographic objects from the prehistoric, pre-Angkorian, Angkorian and post-Angkorian periods.

Housed in a graceful terracotta structure of traditional design (built 1917-20) just north of the Royal Palace, its central location and peaceful position opposite the waterfront, endures visitors with its impressive architecture. It is one of the most striking buildings still standing in modern day ‘Indochina’ and private access is only granted selectively.

The outdoor courtyard is connected to a central sculpture/statue via walkways and adjacent ponds. Here bamboo torches line the way with hundreds of candles alongside the pond edges.
