In this latest episode I look back to a visit to Phnom Penh in 2019 with a morning walk through the markets and streets near the Riverside neighborhood tourist/backpacker area. This district of Phnom Penh is recommended for first time visits to the city. It's one of the most convenient spots for restaurants, sites, and of course near the boardwalk along the Tonle Sap River. If you're not interested in seeing the darker side of this area stay away from the streets where the beer parlors are located if that's not your thing. I like walking through the Kandal Market and some of the streets in the area that feature lots of local sellers of street food, fruit, and other items. Just be careful around here with your personal items as this is a hunting ground for pickpockets and bag snatchers. Get out to some of the restaurants away from this area too so your dining experience isn't entirely sitting in a room full of foreigners listening to 70's classic rock.
Also in this episode more news on the pandemic in Vietnam and Cambodia.
