The country of ancient temple complexes, virgin jungles and luxurious beaches on the shores of the South China Sea is a popular holiday destination for Russian travelers. At the airports of Cambodia, native speech is often heard, and in terms of the number of restaurants of Russian cuisine, the local resorts will soon catch up and surpass neighboring Thailand.
There are no direct flights to Phnom Penh or Sihanoukville from Moscow in the schedules of world airlines yet, but with transfers in Bangkok or Ho Chi Minh, you can get here in 10.5 hours on the wings of Aeroflot, Thai Airlines, and Vietnam Airlines.
