Phnom Penh was created in 1434 to succeed Angkor Thom as the capital of the Khmer nation but was abandoned many times before being reestablished in 1865 by King Norodom. Phnom Penh’s most beautiful buildings stand as monuments to kings, deities and colonial powers, extending Cambodia’s rich and complex history. Over the years, the capital has built up impressive feats of modern architecture, sending Cambodia into a new era of cultural identity. The empire of Cambodia has a rich history of Khmer architecture. But new architecture is being built throughout Cambodia, projects that reinterpret culture and tradition to create modern spaces for contemporary life.
