The maiden of Battambang province. An example of my “drive-by” photography skills! Or, the lack of it. Ehrm.

It was the last day of the Chinese New Year when, and a very early morning at that, when my husband and I decided to go on a road trip. We ended up in Phnom Prasith, some 30kms away from Phnom Penh.
A lonely shrine sits on top of the hill.
I wrote about our trip there in this blog post.
To get there, from Phnom Penh, take National Road Number 5 until you reach Prek Phnov market. Then turn left and drive 13kms more on a dirt road. The scenery is beautiful along the way, except for the dust as there were road constructions at the time we went there. You will see the hills, and one of them has a very old temple with a giant reclining Buddha. Take time to talk with the caretakers as they may tell you interesting stories.

Last year, after a rigorous week-long field work, we were treated to a sumptuous meal in this restaurant. The name escapes me now but it is really worth going back there.
I love this quaint restaurant showcasing Khmer architecture. It is located outside of Banlung town tucked in the verdant hills of Ratanakiri province. The food is fantastic as well serving Khmer traditional dishes.
