Mon. 13th May. am. PHNOM PENH.

A trip around Phnom Penh. It was the King's birthday so nice and quiet.

In the grounds of the Royal Palace is the Silver Pagoda. 15,000 pure silver tiles wighing 1 kg. each cover the floor.

There is also a statue of Buddha Maitreya in solid gold weighing 95 kg. with a 28 Carat diamond in the forehead!
