My husband and I went out for a drive outside Phnom Penh this morning. It was such a lovely day for a day trip. Even our pet dogs, Max and Joe, loved it.

A small piece of heaven is found here… in Cambodia.

This is the Cambodia that I really love. The charming rural landscape is dominated by flat land, verdant paddy ricefields, and the pompom-like palm trees, which is the national tree of Cambodia.

This sight is refreshing to the tired, weary eyes of city-dwellers like us.

Some three years ago my husband and I embarked on a 700km-roadtrip southeast of Cambodia. Along the way we came across this beautiful place that, at that time, were “undergoing development”.

This is Kampong Trach Resort.  It has several limestone mountains  that contain caves that are worthy of a visit.

The limestone caves of Kampong Trach contain Buddhist shrines as well as unique rock formations.

There are interesting rock formations as well as shrines in the caves.
Here are more pictures of what’s inside the Kampong Trach resort.

Witnessed the beauty of bewitching hour while on the road and well on our way back to the city. We are still in Svay Chrum district (Svay Rieng province) when I took this photo.

Where does this double yellow line lead you to?

This road is a part of the National Road 1, from Phnom Penh leading to the provinces of Prey Veng and Svay Rieng. Taken last weekend while on a road trip to the Cambodian border town of Bavet in Svay Rieng province.
