 ​Cambodia, a country rich in history, culture and natural beauty! Our first visit (Silk Tour) includes a stopover which is a guided tour of the Prek Bong Kong Buddhist pagoda. This pagoda is a sacred site in the region, with its colorful buildings and unusual statues. Through these you can learn the story of Buddha, ancient Khmer legends as well as Buddhist traditions and ancestral know-how.
 
In both cases you will go to a silk workshop, where you can learn everything about Cambodian silk production.
