In additional to the main tourist attractions above, Phnom Penh offers a number of other cultural sites and place to relax. They include Chaktomuk Hall, south of the Royal Palace and along the riverfront, where dancers perform traditional Cambodian dance. Independence Monument, near down town, is the site of many ceremonial events. It adjoins a long mall that stretches east toward the riverfront, where it meets Hun Sen Park, near the Naga Casino Resort Complex. There are also numerous popular bars and nightclubs for visitors looking for something to do after dark. To talk about accommodation, it’s really easy and safely in Cambodia.
