Cambodia


Map of CambodiaCAMBODIA is an Indochinese country in Southeast Asia that borders the countries of Laos, Thailand, and Vietnam. This country was formerly known as Kampuchea. The capital of Cambodia is Phnom Penh! The currency is the Cambodian Riel, and its ISO 4217 currency code is KHR. A significant, well-known, and historical structure is Angkor Wat, a Khmer temple built in the early 1100s and located north of Tônlé Sap, Cambodia's largest lake.

Map Note: The island of Ãao Phu Quôc belongs to Vietnam; on my newest versions of maps, islands that are green or white (with transparency) belong to other countries.
