About Phnom Penh
Phnom Penh is the Cambodian capital, sitting at the confluence of the Mekong, the Tonle Sap and the Bassac rivers — the four-arm junction is known locally as the Chaktomuk. The Royal Palace and Silver Pagoda, the National Museum's Khmer sculpture collection, the Tuol Sleng genocide museum (the former S-21 prison) and the Choeung Ek killing fields are the standard cruise-passenger visits. Ships moor on the Sisowath Quay riverfront, in the centre of the city's nightlife and dining district.
