SIEM REAP PLUS OTHER MISCELLANEOUS CAMBODIA PICS
Here are a few pics of Siem Reap and a few pics "in transit" through Cambodia.

First, a few Siem Reap pics...

Typical street...



Common flowering tree in Cambodia...the golden shower tree (Cassia Fistula)...



Ultra-touristy alley ("The Alley" with tourist shops, restaurants, etc.)...



A place serving wild and unusual meats (to tourists)...



Two restaurants (Happy Herb Pizza and Ecstatic Pizza) serving something entirely different (mostly to tourists)...pizza with a "special" herb (yep...it's marijuana). These restaurants exist and are "tolerated" in the main tourist areas of Cambodia.



Preah Promreath Pagoda in Siem Reap...



Pagoda grounds...



Stream in Siem Reap...



Sign reminding drivers to slow down in 2 languages (very common throughout Cambodia--this one was in Siem Reap)...



The leadership of Cambodia (these signs were everywhere)...



Palmyra palms in the countryside..



Rural houses/huts (most along the route between Phnom Penh and Siem Reap were on stilts). Blurriness, of course, is from the pace of the bus!



Mekong River Ferry (the highway between Phnom Penh and Vietnam has a ferry instead of a bridge over the Mekong River)...



View of the Mekong River from the ferry...



Highway just inside the border with Vietnam (at Bavel)...





All of the above pictures on this page were taken in March 2012 by Brandt Maxwell.
