Hello everyone, today I am going to show you a place in the center of Phnom Penh, in front of the Royal Palace and along the Chaktomuk River. Before describing the landscape and activities along the river, I would like to bring you some history of the birth of Phnom Penh for you to know first. Phnom Penh is the capital of the Kingdom of Cambodia and the smartest city in the country with a population of nearly 2 million in 2017. Phnom Penh is the largest commercial, industrial and job hub in Cambodia. Phnom Penh has a large cluster of buildings, including the largest market and supermarket in Cambodia, the largest university for students, international airports, seaports, and land ports for the supply, transportation, and storage of other goods. And tourist attractions that attract many national and international visitors, second only to Siem Reap.
Phnom Penh takes the name of Wat Phnom, a small hill adorned by a pagoda built-in 1373, and it is also the legendary birthplace of the city, where today Wat Phnom is located in Wat Phnom. Daun Penh district. At Wat Phnom, it is observed that many people and national tourists visit there, especially on national holidays or major national holidays, creating fun and places of worship for Buddhism. And Buddhists of all backgrounds as well. Legend has it that in 1372, an old devotee named Daun Penh traveled to the banks of the Mekong River and saw a large dead Koki tree floating down the river. Inside the hollow of the Korki tree are four bronze statues and a stone Buddha statue. Daun Penh brought the statues ashore and led the people to dig in the southeast of her house. He later used the Koki tree as a temple on the mountain to house the five Buddha statues, and later named it Wat Phnom Daun Penh, now known as Wat Phnom. This is a small hill with a height of 27 meters s (89 ft). Later, King Ponhea Yat, seeing the transparency of Daun Penh to Buddhism, therefore renamed this province Phnom Penh, formerly Phnom Penh, now called Koh Russey Keo, which now has a district called Khan Russey Keo and another Khan named Daun Penh, which Daun Penh takes the name of Daun Penh.
If we look from above, the river that I am showing you is four major rivers that converge, called the Chaktomuk River in front of the Royal Palace, including the Upper Mekong, the Lower Mekong, and the Lower Tonle Sap. And the Bassac River.
The Mekong River is the 12th longest river in the world. The Mekong River is one of the most important rivers in the world. In 1995, Laos, Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam established the Mekong River Commission to effectively manage and protect the Mekong Delta. In 1996, China and Myanmar became members of the Mekong River Commission, so far there are six members. The river is about 4,200 km long and passes through six countries: China, Burma, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, and Vietnam and flows into the South China Sea. The river covers an area of about 2.6 million square kilometers. The Mekong River is the lifeblood of Cambodia. It flows through the provinces of Stung Treng, Kratie, Kampong Cham, Phnom Penh, and Prey Veng and ends at the Vietnamese border. The Mekong River crosses National Road 1 at the Neak Leung Bridge.
