Driving along Norodom Boulevard near Wat Phnom I saw this old colonial house that was newly painted. It is beautiful and one of the few that are still found in the city. It houses the Ministry of Women’s Affairs, if I am not mistaken.

I think this is one of the few that has escaped the hands of businessmen who tear down old buildings to make way for ugly, commercial ones.
