The River 110806

US dollars all gone, we leave the Old Market and cross the road to this handsome colonial era building. Bury all the cables, and the place will be much prettier.


Siem Reap river is nearby, which upstream flows next to Angkor Thom. Downstream it empties into Tonle Sap. They take their river seriously here ...


... and the well-tended banks attract lunchtime picnickers.


I leave the river and decide to look for the mosque for my noon Friday prayer. See story HERE.
