From Siem Reap to Phnom Penh, the city where I first tasted tarantulas and snakes, was even forced to buy the face mask as the Asians do (yes, pollution), visited the prisons of Pol Pot and learned more about cambodian history (I don't want to write more about this topic, see for yourself if you'll have the chance, but it's something hard to forget.).
