Cambodian tale, which began Kipling.

Cambodia (or Cambodia) is a kingdom in Southeast Asia. The country is located in the south of the Indochina Peninsula. The very location of this mysterious country attracts tourists from all over the world. The history of this state is also so mysterious and contradictory.

The pearls of Cambodia, undoubtedly, is a complex of temples of Angkor and a snow-white beach of the South China Sea.

Rudyard Kipling, the world-famous English writer of the 19th century after visiting the Cambodian temples, was so shocked by what he saw that he captured the ruins of Angkor in his immortal work "Mowgli".

It is unlikely that a visit to Cambodia will be interesting and fascinating for a tourist who is accustomed to club rest on the principle of "all inclusive", for a tourist preferring comfort and respectability of the hotel to the simplicity and tranquility of the virgin nature of the jungle. However, to date, a number of tour operators already offer tours to the fabulous hotels in the beauty and comfort of Cambodia hotels built in the last few years.

There is no air communication between Russia and Cambodia yet, you can get there through neighboring countries: Thailand, Vietnam. On the one hand, this complicates the journey, but on the other hand gives undeniable advantages. You will have the opportunity to visit the neighboring country of Cambodia, and you should not miss this chance.

It is convenient for travel to choose about such a route: Moscow-Phuket or Bangkok (Thailand) - Phnom Penh or Sihanoukville (Cambodia) - Phuket or Bangkok (Thailand) - Moscow.

The minimum period for such a trip is two weeks. What can you see and where to relax during this time?

You will visit Thailand with its unforgettable exotic. If it is Bangkok, then you will need 1-2 full days for sightseeing, walking along the river, visiting the night market of flowers and fruits. If you choose Phuket - then you can stay for 2-3 days to rest after a long flight on the shore of this paradise island.

Arriving in Cambodia, you should spend at least 2 days visiting the temples of Angkor. In short, it is a complex of Khmer temples of the 11th-16th centuries, located right in the jungle. There are several versions of the decline of the Khmer civilization. According to one of them, neighboring kingdoms - Burma and Siam conquered the Khmer state, on the other - Cambodia was washed away by a giant wave of Mekong.

The rest of your trip should be spent on the shores of the South China Sea near the city of Sihanoukville. The white sand of the beach, for millennia was created by the sea and the sun from mother-of-pearl shells. This sand by color and to the touch is very similar to talcum powder. The sea changes its color, but mostly it is a green-blue bright color, and the waves are pearly. This effect is due to the smallest plankton, shining like in the sun, and in the dark with brilliant brilliance.

And most importantly, we must remember that in Kampuchea, during the 1970s, the "Khmer Rouge" ruled under the leadership of the executioner Pol Pot. The genocide against its own people led to the fact that virtually all the population that had an education at that time was destroyed. Now in Cambodia there are almost no people with higher education older than 55-60 years. Cambodian people for a long time paid a high price for the monstrous bloody slaughter. Be indulgent with literacy and Aboriginal education. Cambodians are very meek and kind-hearted people. They are treated with great respect for the people of the white race . Answer them with kindness and attention.

Plunge into the fairy world of Cambodia, read the story started by Kipling in its own way. And how to know, maybe you will write your own, an unforgettable tale.
