Cambodia's emerging second international gateway near Phnom Penh.

Location
Phnom Penh, Cambodia
Techo International Airport, designated with IATA code KTI and ICAO code VDTI, is a new international airport under development near Phnom Penh, Cambodia. It is located in the Boeng Khyang area and is intended to replace Phnom Penh International Airport (Pochentong) as the capital's primary aviation hub.

City & Place Guide

Where Khmer history, riverside energy, and resilience converge

Phnom Penh, Cambodia's bustling capital, sits at the confluence of the Mekong, Tonle Sap, and Bassac rivers. The Boeng Khyang area sits on the city's expanding eastern fringes, offering a glimpse into residential Phnom Penh away from the tourist center, with wetlands, local markets, and a slower pace of life.

The city balances a sobering past with a vibrant present. Visitors encounter ornate royal palaces, silver-floored temples, and the haunting legacy of the Khmer Rouge alongside booming cafes, rooftop bars, and a thriving arts scene. It is a city that demands reflection as much as exploration.

Phnom Penh is increasingly cosmopolitan, with a young population driving growth in food, fashion, and nightlife. Despite rapid development, it retains a distinct Cambodian character found in its street food, pagodas, and warm local hospitality.

  • •Royal Palace & Silver Pagoda — stunning royal complex with sacred Emerald Buddha
  • •Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum — sobering S-21 prison that documents Khmer Rouge atrocities
  • •Choeung Ek Memorial — peaceful yet powerful Killing Fields memorial outside the city
  • •National Museum of Cambodia — finest collection of Khmer sculpture and artifacts
  • •Riverside Promenade — lively waterfront perfect for sunset walks and street food
  • •Central Market (Psar Thmei) — iconic Art Deco dome housing jewelry, clothes, and souvenirs

Getting around: Phnom Penh has no urban rail system. Tuk-tuks remain the classic and affordable choice for short hops, while app-based rideshares like Grab and PassApp offer metered motorbike taxis and cars. Renting a bicycle suits the flat city layout, and local buses exist but are limited in coverage. Metered taxis and private car hires are widely available for longer trips or airport transfers.

Best time: Visit between November and February for cool, dry weather and low humidity, making sightseeing most comfortable.

Local food: Sample fish amok (coconut curry steamed in banana leaf), nom banh chok noodle soup at morning markets, and fresh Mekong river prawns grilled along the riverside.
