    It was a delight!
    I had not known what to expect but definitely not this.
    A war-torn country; who'd have expected these luxuries?
    It's very similar to Thai architecture, lots of gold & green colored tiles.

    No special demarcation here.
    It blends with the palace & other architecture within the palace compound.

    Royal Palace: The French Influence

  • Napoleon III Pavilion - Phnom Penh
    Napoleon III Pavilion
    by Sharrie
    The Royal Treasury, the Royal Banqueting Hall, and the Napoleon III Pavilion are located south of the Throne Hall.

    Napoleon III Pavilion is especially interesting in that it was originally given by the Emperor Napoleon III to Empress Eugenie (his wife), who in turn had it dismantled and sent to Phnom Penh as a gift for King Norodom in the 1870s.

    Very nice Royal Palace in Phnom Penh (3 US $ entrance fee, 2 more for the camera)

    Only partly to be visited, the second half is for the King.

    Actually, the pavillion was built in Egypt but in French colonial style and was given to the Cambodian King by Napoleon III
