have anyone been to cambodia?

Yes, I've been there. I was in Vietnam when President Nixon gave the order to enter Cambodia in an effort to pursue NVA troops, who used that country as a staging area for attacks on American and South Vietnamese installations. The sector we entered, had already been abandoned.
A beautiful country, what I can remember of it.

Great tourist destination now for the 'rugged minded'. You can see many beautiful things. I recommend it. You need to get used to poverty all around you. You will see countless beggars with missing limbs from land-mines, etc.

2 days is Phenom Pehn and 2 days in Siem Reap (Anchor Wat) is a good enough time if you want a good feel for it. They have regular flights between the two places.

Last April I stood on the cliff at Pah-ee-maw-daeng in Thailand and saw the beautiful dark green plain down below that is part of Cambodia. It looked so peaceful and the green extended to the horizon. I could also see the Khao-pra-vi-harn from afar, too, but the afternoon was way too hot for me to walk up from there. I wish I could really get into Cambodia the next time and visit the country.
apart from the casinos around poipet pretty safe. travel is a little hard but ok. Good info at passplanet
