Phonm Penh's best attraction is its Royal Palace which is still the official residence of its King. It is impressive in its own right but pales in comparison to the Grand Palace in Bangkok.
Within the compound of the Royal Palace is the Silver Pagoda, the floor of which is covered with 5000 shining silver tiles. Inside the Pagoda is a baccarat crystal Buddha and life-sized solid gold Buddha which is adorned with diamonds. Unfortunately, photography is not permitted so you just have to be content to view these truly remarkable Buddhas.
