Phnom Penh Heritage tour

Phnom Penh, the capital of Cambodia, is undergoing rapid and often chaotic development. In the midst of its transformation, some of the city's most historically significant buildings risk being forgotten. The Phnom Penh Heritage Tour invites you to rediscover part of the city’s rich architectural and cultural legacy—specifically, from the period when Cambodia was under French Protectorate rule. Whether by tuk-tuk or traditional cyclo, and equipped with a digital tablet, you’ll embark on a unique journey through the city’s most iconic heritage sites.

A journey through history

With Phnom Penh Heritage, you’ll explore 22 historical sites, tablet in hand. See each building in real-time with panoramic viewing effects, compare its present appearance with archival photos, and dive deeper into its story through immersive audio narration. You’ll even have exclusive virtual access to several locations that are normally closed to the public.
