Elvelangs i Phnom Penh

Langsetter Tonle Sap-elva fra nedenfor kvelds-/nattmarkedet i Phnom Penh forbi det kongelige palasset til fergeleiet ved Kampong Chamlong er det en tre kilometer lang elvepromenade. Sisowath Quay er best om morgenen, på grunn av temperaturen, og på ettermiddag og kveld. Både på grunn av temperatur og folkeliv.

Foran det kongelige palasset møtes Tonle Sap-elva med Mekong-floden, og Mekong fortsetter sørover derfra.

Solbriller og solkrem

På dagtid, spesielt i den tørre årstida fra desember til juni er det veldig varmt. Og den lyse belegningen samt de hvite byggene krever gode solbriller og hyppig påføring av solkrem.

Det er lettere de dagene det er litt urolig vær i områdene rundt. Da er det en frisk bris som gjør vandring her svalere.

Om morgenen er det et sted for en rolig promenering mens man hører byen våkne til liv og elva er fyllt opp av nyttetrafikk.

Om ettermiddag og kveld er det et sted der lokale, internasjonale og turister myldrer, i mangel av et bedre ord. Langsetter promenaden er et det stort utvalg av restauranter, barer og p��bber, og små gateutsalg der det selges snacks og drikkevarer. I noen av de større plassene er det grupper av lokale som bedriver dans, gruppetrening av zumba-typen, og rundt om er det familier med lekende barn, og unge svermende lokale ungdommer.

Og ikke så rent få turister i samme ærend.

Båtliv

Langsetter elva er det også mengder av små og større båter som tilbyr dagskrus langs Tonle Sap og Mekong, solnedgangstur og kveldstur med middag. I sesongen er det også herfra båter som tar dagsreiser langs Tonle Sap elva til innsjøen og Siem Reap.

På plenen foran palasset er det som regel familie- og vennegrupper som har piknik, der det nytes medbrakt mat og drikke. Eller dette kjøpes fra de allestedsnærværende gatematbodene.

Om man ikke vil sette seg i en av utestedene langs elva, er det et stort utvalg av små og store steder i de første kvartalene inn i gamlebyen. Ofte med mer lokal mat og til hyggelige priser.

I nattmarkedet i PP inneholder det sedvanlige utvalget av klær, tilbehør, klokker, bagger og en egen seksjon med gatemat. Prisene på saker og ting er på den akseptable siden, og størrelsene på klær er som regel passende for europeere. Maten er ålreit, men prismessig er det bedre å trekke inn byen nord eller sør for nattmarkedet.

Lenger promenering

Phom Penh er inne i en byggeboom, og lokalmedia melder at dette har tatt seg opp igjen på vei ut av pandemien. Dette innebærer at Elvepromenaden er i ferd med å utvides både nordover mot Chroy Changvar-brua, som er hovedinnfartsåra for hovedveiene nordfra, og sørover langs Koh Pich øya ut mot Mekong-elva.

Men sjarmen, folkelivet og ikke minst fargene vil forhåpentligvis fortsatt være verdt å bruke tiden på.

Cambodian Traditional Dances

Traditional dance is a popular art form in Cambodia and so greatly revered that no visit to Cambodia is completed without watching at least one Khmer traditional dance performance. During the Khmer Rouge reign from 1975 to 1979, much of this Cambodian traditional art form was almost wiped out. However, huge efforts have been done to rekindle the ancient art from into new life. Dances in Cambodia are divided into three main genres: Classical Dance for the royal court, Folk Dance portraying cultural traditions and Social Dances performed in social gatherings.

1. Classical Dances.

Khmer classical dance, or locally known as Robam Preah Reach Trop, is a highly stylized performing art form originating from the royal courts. Originally, it was performed and maintained by attendants of the royal palaces, with the purpose of calling upon the gods and spirits, as well as expressing the respect to the royal courts. Later then, Khmer classical dance was popularized to the public in the middle of the 20th century.

Khmer Classical Dance was originated from the royal courts.

It soon became the symbol of Cambodian culture and often performed during special occasions like holidays, public events and for tourists in main tourism hubs. In the performance of classic dance, intricately costumed dancers perform slow and figurative gestures, with the musical accompaniment of a pinpeat ensemble. The classical repertoire includes dances of tribute or invocation and the enactment of traditional stories and epic poems such as the Ramayana. There are more than ten Khmer classical dances but the most performed and known dances are Apsara Dance (Robam Tep Apsara) and Blessing Dance (Robam Choun Por).

Apsara Dance.

The most popular form of classical Cambodian dance is Apsara, stretching back to the 7th century. A walk around the main temples of Angkor gives tourists general ideas about the importance of Apsara Dance in ancient Khmer culture, with the images of apsara dancers carved into the walls and bas reliefs. Its roots were found in both Hindu and Buddhist mythologies, with the concept that Apsaras were beautiful female creatures that visited Earth from heaven to entertain Gods and Kings with their enchanting dance.

Apsara is the most popular form of classical Cambodian dance.

The Khmer King Javayarman VII in the 12th century was said to have over 3000 Apsara dancers in his court. The dance moves in slow, hypnotic, and gentle paces in order to reflect the idea that spirits entrap mortals with their beauty. With more than 1500 exist, hand gestures are the main traits of the dance. Every single movement of the fingers has its own distinct meaning. Some movements even require dancers to bend their fingers almost to their wrists. Elaborate traditional costumes is the identification of Apsara Dance, and help to mirror the majestic moves of dancers. They wear elegant silk clothes with floral motifs, stunning jeweled headdress, and sparkling accessories like necklaces, earrings, bracelets and anklets. Due to the extreme complexity of this performing art, Khmer girls start training from a very young age to get enough flexibility in their hands and feet to execute intricate movements.

The Apsara Dance was almost wipe out because the Pol Pot-led regime took a massacre included Apsara dancers in Cambodia during the Khmer Rouge period in 1975-1979. Luckily, few surviving dancers kept the tradition remained by passing their knowledge and skills to the younger generations. The most outstanding event marking the new life of Apsara Dance was when Queen Sisowath Kossomak Nearirath Serey Vatthana, the wife of King Norodom Suramarit, visited the Sothearath primary school in 1940s.

She saw the school mistress prepare an inspirational Angkor Apsara dance performed by young school children in the paper apsara costume so she got the idea of rekindling the dance. She trained her first daughter, Princess Bopha Devi, to practice the dance and 5 years old and then princess became the first professional Apsara dancer in the 1950s and 60s. In 2003, Apsara Dance was recognized as the Masterpiece of Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO.

Blessing Dance.

Robam Choun Por is performed to wish for good health, happiness, prosperity and success.

Cambodian Blessing Dance, or Robam Choun Por in Khmer language, is traditionally presented at the beginning of a ceremony or special occasion in Cambodia. This dance is performed by a group of young Khmer girls in odd numbers (3 – 5 or 7 persons) to wish for good health, happiness, prosperity and success. The female dancers are well-dressed with Khmer Classical Royal Ballet costumes to symbolize the Devata. Each carries a golden goblet filled with flower blossoms inside, like jasmine, lotus or Romdoul. In Khmer’s perspective, blossoms are represented for the blessings from the Gods. With charming and elegant movements, dancers hold the golden goblets, pluck the blossoms and gently toss them toward the audience with honor and wishful blessing. 2. Folk Dances.

Cambodia Folk Dances play important roles in highlighting various cultural traditions and ethnic groups of Cambodia. As opposed to the classical dances, these folk dances are faster paced movements and gestures are less stylized. Folk dancers wear clothes of the people whom they are play roles, such as Chams, hill tribes, farmers and peasants.

Typically, folk dance performances are accompanied by a mahori orchestra, including stringed and plucked instruments as well as flute. Cambodian folk dances are also regarded as ceremonial dances because they are not performed widely in public. They are inspired by countryside life and practices, and tend to be reserved for the particular rituals, celebrations and holidays among rural communities.

There is a wide variety of Cambodian folk dances with different meanings:

Cambodian Folk Dances highlight various cultural traditions and ethnic groups of Cambodia.

Trot Dance– a popular dance featuring a hunter who is chasing a deer. In ancient times, Khmer villagers got troubles from the wild animals going to their villages. Therefore, this dance was performed to protect them from this bad luck. Trot Dance is performed to ward off evil and bad luck from previous year and celebrate the coming of Khmer New Year.

Sneak Toseay Dance – a dance around animal characters, like tiger, peacock, and deer. The dance originates in Phnum Kravanh District, Pursat Province and depicts the Pear people.

Robam Kom Araek – a dance mainly used two or three bamboo pole which hitting every second. Farmers practice this bamboo dance at the end of a long working day in the fields as a way of entertainment. It is reported that the dance came from Kuy people but it is more believed that the birthplace is Philippines during the reign of King Norodom (1834-1904) when he was traveling in Philippines.

Robam Kngaok Pailin – a dance describing the movement and beauty of the peacock. This dance portrays the Kula people in Pailin and their amusement with a pair of peafowl, but also much influenced by Burmese dance.

Chhayam – a well-known entertainment dance about pleasure, including several comedic roles and beautiful girls. The dance is performed at holidays and is a pure Khmer dance.

Cambodian Coconut Dance – a dance performance involving coconuts with male and female dancers. Men wear a yellow shirt and dark red “Changkibin”. Women wear a button up shirt and a green silk “Changkibin”. The dance originated around 1960 from Romeas Haek District in Svay Rieng Province.

Cambodian Fishing Dance – a dance performance involving fishing that was composed in the 1960’s at the Royal University of Fine Arts in Phnom Penh. It involves male and female dancers.

Social Dances.

At social gatherings in Cambodia, social dances are performed with common types, such as: ramvong, ram kbach and ram saravan.

Ramvong is social dancing form in traditional events, modern parties or celebrations.

Ramvong in Cambodia, Lamvong in Laos or Ramwong in Thailand represent for the popular social dancing form in these Southeast Asia countries. Both men and women can participate in the same circle, continuously move in a circular manner and perform basic hand movements and simple footwork. This slow round dance style can be seen in traditional festivals, popular celebrations and modern parties. In Cambodia, ram vong dance can be found among ethnic groups of the Phnong, Krung, Tampuan and Brao people.

Ram kbach dance is generally similar to ram vong in terms of circle arrangements, as well as hands and legs gestures. But the movements in ram kbach are slower and more gentle. Besides ramvong and ram kbach, ram saravan dance style are also popular with Khmer people at festival time, when people gather and perform the dance together. Even being thought to traditionally originated from Laos, Khmer people love to perform it at special events like wedding parties, especially at Khmer New Year.

Like people all over the world, Cambodian people consider dancing is an integral part of spiritual life and rites of passage, as well as a popular form of entertainment. Moreover, they also believe that all dance styles – both traditional and modern styles, can help create friendship and happiness among society.

Phnom Penh, Cambodia

Phnom Penh, Cambodia

    I’ve been on a 90-day trip to every time zone around the globe. My mission is world peace through cultural exchange. I was sustainable when I could by using local transportation, buses, and trains. I was solo, carrying a small backpack, called a “personal item,” that fit under the seat in front of me on a plane.

  In this episode, the FAQ is: Should I bring earplugs on my trip?

.

Today’s Destination is Phnom Penh, Cambodia

Today’s Mistake- I left my phone at the bus office.

Travel Advice: Keep a pen handy

  FAQ: Should I bring earplugs on my trip?

  Yes. You can first step away from the noise, turn the volume down, or try these tips to save your hearing. Noise-canceling headphones may be preferred, but you can use earplugs if traveling light. Do they work well? They are better than nothing. Here are three steps to using foam earplugs: Roll, pull, and hold. Roll them to fit your ear, pull back your ear, and then insert them until they fit comfortably. The show notes have tips to help you out.

  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zM3R_1JceWo

    Today’s destination: Phnom Penh, Cambodia

  …..before you go, read up on the region's history and try to understand the heartbreaking things that happened in this country. The country went through some tough years in the last century. They are a comparatively less developed country, but the people have hope for the future. Phnom Penh, Cambodia’s capital, meets at the junction of the Mekong and Tonlé Sap rivers. Historically, it became a trading hub for the Khmer Empire and French colonialists. Listen to the Siem Reap podcast if you can later on.

  I flew here from Ho Chi Minh City, but taking a bus and a lot cheaper would have been easy. Cambodia Angkor Airlines is reputed to have the best safety standards in the country, although I noticed that my plane was very seasoned. It was a much older model.

  https://www.nomadicmatt.com/travel-guides/cambodia-travel-tips/phnom-penh/

  US citizens need to apply for a Cambodia visa. Cambodia e-visa cost: The Total fee is USD 36, and the E-visa processing time takes 2 - 5 business days. I had to change the date of birth on my visa application, as it was incorrect, which was easy to accomplish. Between when I first submitted it and it printed out, the date got switched, so I fixed it ahead of time.

Rice (bai) is the most essential food in the country, and more than 2,000 species once grew in Cambodia. There's hardly a dish that does not contain rice, including noodles made from rice, desserts, cakes, and alcoholic beverages, and no Khmer meal is complete without boiled rice.

  Although Cambodia's official currency is the Riel, the US Dollar is used in most transactions, so I recommend taking some US Dollars in cash (with some small denomination notes).

  The city’s walkable riverfront is lined with parks, restaurants, and bars, including the ornate Royal Palace, Silver Pagoda, and the National Museum, displaying artifacts from around the country. At the city’s heart is the Art Deco Central Market. I did a lot of mid-day walking along the river at Sisowath Quay, the most popular downtown promenade. There were few people there mid-day. It is scenic; you can see boats on the Tonle Sap River and look across a beautiful vista. Walk here between the Royal Palace and Wat Phnom.

  My hotel in Phnom Penh was across the street from the Independence Monument and near the Cambodia Friendship Monument. They called it the Monument District. At night, the locals, by the hundreds, walked in a counterclockwise direction around the park to get some fresh air and exercise. It was a social experience, too. Families and singles all gathered here. I was part of the walk since I had been too hot to walk much during the day's heat.

  The Independence Monument in Phnom Penh was built in 1958 to memorialize Cambodia's independence from France in 1953. It stands on a roundabout at the intersection of Norodom Boulevard and Sihanouk Boulevard in the city's center.

  https://www.planetware.com/cambodia/phnom-penh-cam-1-2.htm

  In the Khmer Rouge's Security Prison S-21, it was here that some of the regime's worst torture atrocities were carried out. More than 17,000 people passed through these gates between 1975 and 1978, accused of betraying the revolution in some way. The Tuol Sleng Museum was where prisoners were housed, a former school. You can see photographs of what happened here. You can walk through the prison rooms, formerly classrooms. It’s two stories, with offices and rooms with evidence of those killed. The detailed notes and photographs remain along with some of the remnants of furniture and statues of those who died. I took a tuk-tuk to visit this sad place at Street 113, Phnom Penh. I was unhappy but hopeful for a better future when I left here.

Today’s Mistake- I left my phone at the bus office.

  While waiting for the bus, I entered the station and met the people working for the bus tour company. I had about an hour to wait, so I said hi and then sat down to relax from the sun. What I forgot at the desk was my phone. About ten minutes later, the driver arrived and said it was time to board the bus. In my rush, I left my phone on the desk. We started down the road, and then I remembered, so I told the tour guide I needed to get out. He said he would call and make sure they had it, and we would soon go back for it after we dropped someone at the hospital. I thought that was strange, but that’s precisely what happened. That was my second time leaving my phone behind on this trip. I was learning a lesson again. Not to leave my phone anywhere. Don’t be like me. I was lucky. You may not be so fortunate.

  Today’s Travel Advice-Keep a pen handy

  In today’s world of digital technology, one thing you will still need is a pen. There will be a time you need to write down something to remember. It could be a code, a phone number, or a key phrase. Keep something to write with nearby.

Royal Cambodian Dancer of King Sisowath

[askdrzinasia]

Where to chill and enjoy the slow, relaxing hours in PP

The riverside walk along the west side of Ton Le Sap-river stretches nearly 3 kilometres. It starts just outside the Night Market and run south past the junction where Ton Le Sap joins the mighty Mekong River in front of the Royal Square and the Royal Palace.

Sisowath Quay is the local name. It is a nice walk, and deeply needed when the day is hot and the sunrays are strong. That is, if the cooling breeze is there. The difference in temperatur between the land an the river will normally make it so.

For people who learns and experience cities and places by walking, fresh, windy air is always welcome.

Evening and people everywhere

Those who is bothered by the heat, or want to reduce the exposure to direct sun, this walk is peaceful and cooler in the morning. The few people out along the riverside are often tourists or people doing their morning run.

Another cooler time along Sisowath Quay is the evening. But then the riverside fills up by locals socializing, playing, exercising, eating, drinking, dating and selling. The river boats offering day cruise, sunset cruise or dinner cruise try to fill up their boats and work hard to get let arrives to choose their boat.

It is hard to say if it is livelier there than in the old town on one side, or the heavy trafficked river on the other side. Try them all!

It is well worth spending some time there to see and understand Phnom Penh.

According to local sources and media, the riverside walk is extending north towards the Chroy Changvar Bridge, were the large main roads north and northwest enters Phnom Penh proper. And it will stretch south along and around Koh Pich Island.

King Sisowath was king of Cambodia in the early 1900s, at the time Phnom Penh was called the Pearl of Asia because of the architecture and modern city design.

It's not really a tiara but I wanted an excuse to feature the Cambodian royal family. They don't have any tiaras anymore and getting new ones is understandably not a priority. The current king's grandmother, Queen Sisowath Kossamak, had at least two tiaras that are now lost.

The bride is a niece of King Norodom Sihamoni and the daughter of Princess Norodom Arunrasmy and Keo Puth Rasmey. I don't know exactly how Cambodian naming customs work except that the first name is the family name and the second name is the given name. I've seen various combinations of Keo Ponita Rasmey Norodom to refer to the bride and she goes by Keo Ponita professionally as a photographer. Here is the couple with her parents.

During the ceremony, King Norodom Sihamoni and Queen Mother Monineath gave blessings to the bride and groom with a flower arrangement and palm flower petals dipped in holy water sprinkled over their heads.

And some more pictures of their beautiful outfits. The groom is a documentary filmmaker form Uruguay.

TIARA ALERT-ISH: Princess Ponita of Cambodia wore a palm flower headpiece for her wedding to Maximiliano Battaglia at the Royal Palace in Phnom Penh, Cambodia on 12 February 2024.
