Once the rain stopped we continued to visit some other sites within the city, among them a popular Pagoda, which was not in the center. We took a cab there and enjoyed this beautiful place of worship. We arrived at the hotel which we booked in advance but decided not to stay there. Instead the driver convinced us to stay at the Borei Angkor Hotel. We were sure that he would get a sales commission. As my wife is a travel agent, and knows that in certain cases people do not show up, we decided to take a taxi to the airport nonetheless. It was actually not far from the border, about 5 kilometers away. |
