Neat Little Bicycle Shop in Phnom Penh

by Ice on August 16, 2011

  

Slice was thrilled to find this little bicycle shop on a back street just a few blocks from the hotel.

He bought parts for our Giant brand bicycles…parts he couldn’t find in KL!

Across from the bicycle shop…a beautiful apartment building with Chinese noodle restaurant at the street level…

And just a few doors down from the hotel…you have your choice of coffins…

Or an altar to make daily offerings to Buddha…

One of the many Monks seen traipsing back and forth between a very large local Temple and the Buddhist University…

Finishing off with two artful carvings depicting one of the many religious dances that tell stories like the Ramayana or the Mahabharata. The first is the outside wall of an office bulding that we walked past yesterday.

And this little one is hanging in the lobby of our hotel…

Tomorrow we are traveling to Siem Reap to spend a couple of days touring Angkor Wat and one or two other temples. There are at least a dozen that I counted in the Lonely Planet.

A 6:00AM call. Yikes! I hope we have sunny weather for the photo shoot.
