Wat Phnom, Phnom Penh |
 |
|
| Wat Phnom is the oldest temple in Phnom Penh. Legend has it that a 14th century widow found four statues of Buddha washed up on the riverbank. Now her temple sits on a hill overlooking the city.
It was crowded when we visited on New Year's Eve. People were buying and releasing birds and leaving offerings for luck for the coming year.
