Then we take a trip to Cambodia-Japan Friendship Bridge or Chroy Changvar Bridge was constructed in 1966. Phnom Penh is one of the popular Tourist Attractions in Phnom Penh. Phnom Penh Tours would be incomplete without a visit to the Chroy Changvar Bridge, Phnom Penh. Soon after we will travel along the Tonle Sap River toward Wat Sampov Treyleak. At this location we have the perfect scenic view of the Royal Palace from across the river. After, we travel back to Wat Phnom is the only hill in town.
