The following are pictures of the Boeng Kak lake area in Phnom Penn. This is the place were all the backpackers stay. Accommodation here is cheap, about $4 a day, I've even heard of one place offering free accommodation, but I don't know how true that is. There are beautiful views of the lake from wooden decks behind the guest houses, especially at sunset. But be warned, this area is pretty seedy, and I would guess pretty dangerous to walk around alone at night (I didn't stay in this area). I did visit this place for about half an hour to get some photos, and got offered drugs even before I got out of my tuk-tuk. When I returned to my tuk-tuk to leave, two of the dudes trying to sell me pot were sitting in the tuk-tuk waiting for me. After politely refusing them (I don't object to smoking pot; I just don't do it myself, anymore - I mean at all) they left me alone. |

The Lakeside - Boeng Kak Lake This is the area behind the lakeside hostels. As you can see, it's really beautiful; people like to sit out here at sunset and down a few beers. This is where I took all these photos. |
