I am Mardy SUONG, I am from the one of Cambodian Photographers. I wish to extend my heartfelt welcome to all international visitors and photographers to Cambodia-Kingdom of Wonder.

As one of the fastest growing tourism destinations in Southeast Asia, Cambodia’s rich heritage, cultural and natural resources offer a full range of cultural and eco-tourism sites that are both dynamic and sustainable. Highlights include Phnom Penh, the Angkor Wat and the Mekong River Dolphins, just to name a few.

The Kingdom’s capital is a dynamic city where visitors are in the mood for shopping, dining, sightseeing and more. As Cambodia’s hub for commerce, politics and tourism, Phnom Penh is also home to many important institutions and monuments such as Wat Phnom, the Royal Palace and the National Museum. The magnificent Angkor Wat and Preah Vihear, Heritage of Humanity and World Wonder, is probably the most exotic tourist destination in the world and the renowned yet very rare Mekong River dolphins can also be found in Cambodia. During your staying here, do visit and relax on Cambodia’s pristine beaches, explore the coral reefs around many of our beautiful islands and trek through lush mangrove forests. The bay of Cambodia has been inducted to the Most Beautiful Bay of the World Club.

Regards and thanks!

— with Suong Mardy, Viche Kal, Mani Hun and 12 others.

Bucharest is a city of contrasts. Not one hundred yars away from a bright and shiny, all-glass office building façade, one can often spot scenes like this: a row of utterly delapidated houses on the verge of collapsing, even in the very heart of the city. And then, there is a nice new sign explaining in three languages why they are classified as historical monuments...

La ville de Bucarest est plein de constrastes. A peine 100 mètres de la scène ci-dessus, une immeuble hyper-moderne aved façades tout en verre domine le quartier. Et ici, en plein centre ville, deux bâtiments - pourtant classés monument historique, avec une chouette plaque en trois langues - ne sont pas loin de s' effondrer...

Nederlands

Boekarest is een stad vol contrast. Nog geen honderd meter van een hypermoderne kantoorkolos met volledig glazen gevels kun je dit soort dingen zien: huizen die zo goed als instorten, ook midden in het centrum. Maar dan wel voorzien van een mooi plaatje dat in drie talen uitlegt dat je naar een historisch monument kijkt en waarom...

Pilgrim Monument

The Pilgrim Monument in Provincetown, Massachusetts, was built between 1907 and 1910, to commemorate the first landfall of the Pilgrims in 1620, and the signing of the Mayflower Compact in Provincetown Harbor. This 252-foot-7.5-inch-tall campanile is the tallest all-granite structure in the United States, and is part of the Provincetown Historic District.
