A riverside palace with a silver-tiled pagoda floor, a genocide museum that tells the country's hardest history without flinching, and a market culture along the Mekong that runs from dawn well past dark.

The best time to visit Phnom Penh is Nov–Feb, when typical daytime highs reach about 32°C (89°F).
