The Perfect Phnom Penh OK, maybe this whole 'Phnom Penh = Prague' meme is a little overblown. I shouldn't be too critical. Phnom Penh (and Cambodia) have a lot of cool things to offer. I just don't enjoy seeing it oversimplified. So: bring us your tourist dollars, hippies!* There's a happening art scene (below - picture from New Art Gallery) and lots to discover, if you're willing to explore. Tharum has created a Flickr group of Phnom Penh pictures that have some great images of the city. http://flickr.com/groups/perfectphnompenh Earth's Molten Core has a charming appreciation of the ubiquitous Cambodian Camry. http://earthsmoltencore.blogspot.com/2007/01/love-is-camry.html Overseas Khmer Brenda shares the love with her Last.Fm Cambo-Pop hit list. And Phnomenon's Phil 'animates the internet with his blog consecrated to Khmer cuisine' (Cambodge Soir writeup today. Alas, the newspaper has no web site. Nudge, nudge.) Tags:cambodia,photography,travel,media *A friend old enough to have been a real hippie reminded me once that the term has been colloquialized, and that they often called themselves 'heads'.
