Colonial Half Day Phnom Penh Cyclo Architecture Tour

Explore Phnom Penh's colonial and religious architecture aboard a traditional cyclo, guided past private buildings and hidden landmarks from 1910 onward, on a relaxed 3 hour tour through the city's back streets. Board a traditional cyclo for a slow, pedal-powered look at a side of Phnom Penh most visitors miss. Your guide leads the way through streets and alleys in search of the city's architectural character. Wide, tree-lined boulevards and French colonial buildings from 1910 onward recall Phnom Penh's past as a French colonial capital, a striking contrast to the modern skylines of other Asian cities. Beyond the well-known landmarks, this tour also takes in private residences and lesser-known examples of religious architecture, some reached only on foot down alleys too narrow for a cyclo. Cyclos still ply these streets today much as they did in colonial times, offering an unhurried, open-air way to watch the city go by. A relaxed journey through Phnom Penh's architectural history.
