Funny, the Phnom Penh photo shows the royal palace but is captioned as "The Independence Monument", which is a radically different-looking structure. Doesn't matter though, I guess. Phnom Penh used to have a lovely sleepy backwater-town feel just a few years ago, but it has kept "developing" and crowding up like crazy, to join the ranks of other South-East Asian capital cities in terms of smog, perma traffic jams, corporate skyscrapers, generic investor/developer-style condominiums etc. Still an awesome city in the region though.
