Dag-Rune ZA lunch break on the backroads to Siem Reap They say in the old Norse book of wisdom and cultural heritage, the Hávamál: “He craves for water, who comes for refreshment, drying and friendly bidding, marks of good will, fair fame if ‘tis won, and welcome once and again. “He hath need of his wits who wanders wide, aught simple will serve at home; but a gazing-stock is the fool who sits mid the wise, and nothing knows.” Wisdom is to enjoy and remember delicious food, good friends and a restful view. Knowledge is know how to get there and enjoy it. This harmonies quite well with the Khmer view of food, friendship and enjoying a chat. And of course enjoy new sights and a break from everyday with a nice view while travelling. And bird viewing, come to that. Enjoy the greener alternative This backroad was consider a shortcut back when we were travelling there, bypassing the crossroads and queues in Sisophon in Western Cambodia. During the pandemic, a huge upgrade was done to the highway between Battambang and Sisiphon and National Road 5 and NR 6. It reduces the travelling time between Siem Reap and Battambang, and between the border city Poipet and Battambang. The reason to take this backroad even with a new road, is the splendid landscape, the lesser amount of tourists and other travellers, and good food and drinks with a view to peaceful, yet lively, wetland area. It is so nice to have choices when travelling. This place is near the Kro Bao Village Peam Pagoda for those who want to see a typical village pagoda in the countryside outside Siem Reap. <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/blue?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#blue</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/sky?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sky</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/lunch?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#lunch</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Cambodia?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Cambodia</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Khmer?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Khmer</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/food?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#food</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/simply?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#simply</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/delicious?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#delicious</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/2019CE?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#2019CE</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Bao?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Bao</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/beautiful?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#beautiful</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/birdwatching?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#birdwatching</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/bluesky?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bluesky</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/buddhism?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#buddhism</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/countryside?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#countryside</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/fishing?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fishing</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/kingdomofwonder?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#kingdomofwonder</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/landscapephotography?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#landscapephotography</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/lunch?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#lunch</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/lunchtime?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#lunchtime</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/offthebeatentrack?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#offthebeatentrack</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/PagodaPeam?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PagodaPeam</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/roadtrip?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#roadtrip</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/village?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#village</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/wetlands?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#wetlands</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Tonlesap?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Tonlesap</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/visitsiemreap?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#visitsiemreap</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/lake?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#lake</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/woodenboat?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#woodenboat</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/birds?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#birds</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/birdwatch?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#birdwatch</a>

Dag-Rune ZOld man blue sky river An evening where a sudden change to rainy clouds added heavy blue tone to the Ton-Le Sap river walk. And some angry skies, indeed...for those who spot such pareidolian patterns.

Dag-Rune ZA spot to enjoy the slow, relaxing hours before sunset The riverside walk along the west side of Ton Le Sap river and east of Sisowath Quay blvd stretches nearly 4 kilometers. That is past the junction where Ton Le Sap joins the mighty Mekong river in front of the Royal Square and the Royal Palace. It is a nice walk, and deeply needed when the day is hot and the sun is beating down. There is always a cooling breeze there. And for people who learns and experience places and cities by walking, fresh, moving air is always welcome. In the evening, the riverside fills up by locals socializing, playing, exercising, eating, drinking, dating and selling. It is hard to say if it is more lively there than in the old town behind Sisowath Quay, or the heavy trafficked river filled with boats on the other side. It is well worth spending some time there to see and understand Phnom Penh, the capital of Cambodia. <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/funinthesun?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#funinthesun</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/sun?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sun</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/bluesky?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bluesky</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/riverwalk?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#riverwalk</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/tree?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#tree</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/shadow?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#shadow</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/citywalk?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#citywalk</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/skyline?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#skyline</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/river?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#river</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/tonlesap?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#tonlesap</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/mekong?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mekong</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/2019CE?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#2019CE</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Phnom?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Phnom</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Penh?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Penh</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Riverside?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Riverside</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Sisowat?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Sisowat</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/quay?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#quay</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/PhnomPenh?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PhnomPenh</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/nicespot?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nicespot</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/nicewalk?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nicewalk</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/eveningspot?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#eveningspot</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/citylife?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#citylife</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/pearlofasia?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pearlofasia</a>
