Join us on a breathtaking journey through the heart of former French Indochina, where history and the remnants of the Vietnam War intertwine. In 1954, both Cambodia and Vietnam gained their independence from French rule, leaving behind a cultural imprint that can still be seen today. The Cold War then shaped Cambodian history, with the overthrow of Prince Sihanouk's government in 1970, leading to a devastating civil war. The Khmer Rouge came into power in 1975, causing a tragedy that claimed the lives of thousands of Cambodians through starvation, concentration camps, and genocide. Despite its tragic past, Cambodia is now a vibrant and exciting country, brimming with rich history, stunning architecture, and awe-inspiring monuments, making it a must-visit destination in Southeast Asia.
