The top two images were bot taken from the staircase of the Phnom Penh Guesthouse. In contrast to the outside bathrooms shown in the first picture - our Battambang bathrooms look quite similar except for being located on the ground - the second picture shows you part of the royal palace. Unfortunately, due to the high entrance fee, I never got to see that place from the inside (as opposed to the bathrooms).
The Apsara dancer is one of the favourite symbols of the country, you can not only see it on electricity agencies but also, for example in the ruling party's (CPP) logo, which means at just about every street corner.
Wat Phnom, from which Phnom Penh derives its name, is a nice place to look at from the outside. However, I failed to understand the reward you are supposed to get for the entrance fee.
