Itinerary
Starting from 8:00am/12pm, Visit Silk Island, home to a silk weaving village and silk center – to see the silk making process from beginning to end, a traditional craft in Siem Reap. Locals sit at their looms, showing the intricate process still done by hand to this day. See the traditional-style local stilt houses where the silk weavers spend their days in the cool land under the homes making simple but delicate silk scarves and skirts. We visit Koh Dach Pagoda, a bright yellow temple where we can see a variety of the island’s Water Festival boats that were designed for battle more than 1,000 years ago. If we have ample time, we stop at the nearby beach before heading back to the hotel.

About Phnom Penh
Phnom Penh is Cambodia's riverside capital, where a gilded royal palace, French-era boulevards and markets sit beside memorials to the Khmer Rouge years.
The Royal Palace, with its tall pointed spires, and the neighbouring Silver Pagoda, whose floor is laid with silver tiles, stand close to the riverfront promenade where the Mekong and Tonlé Sap meet. Wat Phnom, a small hill temple, gave the city its name, and the National Museum, in a red Khmer-style building, holds a major collection of Angkorian sculpture. Art Deco Central Market and the busy Russian Market are good places to wander.
Top-ranked sights in Phnom Penh: Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum (S-21), Choeung Ek Genocidal Center (Choeung Ek Killing Fields), Royal Palace.
