Not too busy city. Streets were pretty clean and i was happy with the condition of the washrooms and toilets. Being Muslim, there were some options for halal food. However, walking around the city along roads and pavements can be a hazard for older people because of uneven road surfaces and lack of pedestrian walkways. Roads need resurfacing too- too many potholes.

it is expensive city, nothing much to offer, trips for tourist should be made affortable so that there will be more people avail the tourist attractions, 10 dollars per place is very expensive, and food is ranging 5 dollars each meal... its just ok, good thing there is a outlet shop, there i enjoyed it.

I loved Phnom Penh, but i went there with a mission of NOT seeing the Killing Fields or S21 (30% of the normal itinerary). I went to the Palace $10 and hired a guide $10... I went to Silk Island..with a guide.. I went to the Museum.. with ChatGPT... Each location was interesting **BUT** the most interesting of all was chatting to the giudes. They told us many stories of their lives, their families, their opinions about everything... this was my "alternative" to the Killing Fields and S21 "experience"...pretty sure a lot of what i heard was subjective, opinionated, perception but i would take that anyday over the informative but soulless ChatGPT... Used Chatgpt in the museum cos i didn't find a guide, they do have audio guides. Despite it's politically correct monotone responses and refusal to be drawn on any of the opinions i was given by my human guides ChatGPT was great at explaining a lot of the history. 3 days, 4 nights in Phnom Penh... maybe it's overkill for most travellers, the palace is cool, as is the riverside walk, the boat trip... The tuktuk trips to anywhere are cool...but you could do all that in a day... I'd watched the Killing Fields movie before going (and again now i have left) and i wish i had made an effort to visit the Hotel Le Royal, the FR embassy, walk the Monivong Boulevard... and on GMAPs i saw an airport in the middle of the city.. i should have tuktuked to that airport to see it maybe... The other thing that is interesting is the Chinese influence in Phnon Penh... i should have visited one of the casinos i think..the construction boom is clear to see...I had delicious authentic chinese food in Phnom Peng...seems to me that there is a big elephant in the room...i will ask ChatGPT..

Phnom Penh is a very cultural heritage capitol. It is beautiful in many areas with temples, periods and high ranking official buildings. But there is no money spent on the people and community. There should be more infrastructure to help the people in the streets. The streets should be cleaned and housing made better. It’s such a shame that the wealth is only for the wealthy. But it was good to see . Phnom Penh is a city that you don’t need a lot of time to explore. , I suggest 4-5 days is plenty.

We did an Architectual tour by cyclo that was great, very informative and lots of fun It is a surprisingly easy city to navigate we used the Grab app which made getting a tuk tuk or car so much easier. They will no longer accept you without a booking in Phonm Penh so be prepared Everyone was surprisingly helpful just dive into the experience and be prepared to laugh the Khemer people will laugh with you as well as at you

The city is diverse. Some areas are old and packed with food carts while others are lined with government buildings and universities. I was not there to sight see but just to fly out. I stayed three nights which was enough for me. I had been in Siem Reap for 2 months so it was a bit nerve racking to be in a big noisy city with traffic.
