AN EMPIRE OF TEMPLES

The Khmer Empire was the largest empire of Southeast Asia and flourished between the 9th and 15th century. The ultimate expression of Khmer genius is found in a UNESCO World Heritage Site called the Angkor Wat, and is matched by only a few select spots in the world such as Machu Picchu or Petra.

APSARA: THE CAMBODIAN DANCE

No visit is complete without a traditional dance performance. This dance is an essential part of the Khmer culture. Every single movement of the fingers has a particular meaning and in 2003, UNESCO recognized the dance as a masterpiece of oral and intangible heritage of humanity.

APSARA DANCE PERFORMERS
This art form was taught only at the royal court with each gesture having its own symbolism.
Khmer Fish Amok Curry
Khmer cuisine has much in common with Thai and Vietnamese cuisine, with plenty of sugar and coconut but with less chilli. Furthermore, Cambodian food has also been influenced by the Chinese (noodles) and the French (baguettes, pate & coffee).

KHMER FISH AMOK CURRY

Cambodia’s cuisine is all about the contrasts — sweet and bitter, salty and sour, fresh and cooked. Fish Amok is a classic Khmer dish that is a must-try when you get here! Everyone that we talked to had a family recipe for their own version of this dish.
