Cambodia is famous for historical sites, scenic beauty and people with a bright wide welcoming smile on their countenance. Cambodia provides you with a number of things to do for a perfect trip. Here is the list of 7 interesting things to do in Cambodia: 1. Explore Cambodia on a bike Traveling in the midst of beauty in the car is certainly not a good idea.

A popular breakfast dish is k’tieu, a noodle soup prepared with pork, beef, or seafood. There are many other options you can try for breakfast. For lunch and dinner, the most well-known preparation is amok, a curry made with coconut milk and served with milk. It is not very spicy food on the list. For desserts try some sweetmeat, a blended fruit drink. When it comes to sipping some alcoholic drink, two most popular beers - Anchor and Angkor should be tried. They both are light and domestic. Wine like Angry Orchard and The Dimple Pinch Scotch are imported too. 3. Long Set Beach, Koh Rong Are you looking for a place away from the real world where you can connect with yourself more? Koh Rong Sanloem Island is one of those places that you shouldn't miss. Its pristine beauty is still untouched by tourism. White sand and clear blue water will make your stay here longer. Watch for different birds and animals that are rarely visible in daily life. This is the place where you can be at peace and listen to your thoughts. It is away from city chaos with limited electricity and wifi supply which makes it rustic and close to nature. Location: Koh Rong, Cambodia 4. Shopping in Cambodia Want to shop? Yes.
