JWRQ+38H, Phnom Penh, Cambodia

Never heard of silk from Cambodia. But what do I know? Either a catered created spot/event for tourism, or their traditional silk making is just mighty…
A colorful boat sailing by @ Khsach Kandal – Kaoh Oknha Tei with Phnom Penh in the horizon.
It’s a nicely choreographed operation. The young guide speaks fluently and effortlessly about how the silk is made, from the silk worm to weaving, and the final products, which is available to purchase.
They take Visa credit cards. The silk scarfs are but too busy for my taste, instead I purchased two cotton scarfs, could use them as table runners too -:)
We take tuk tuk to the island and back.
