Cambodia currently does not have an extensive system of toll roads. However, certain infrastructure projects may introduce toll roads in the future. At present, most roads are free to use.
Cambodia has a tropical climate, characterized by warm temperatures throughout the year. The country experiences two main seasons: the dry season and the rainy season.
The dry season features hot, sunny weather with temperatures ranging from 77°F to 95°F (25°C to 35°C). This is the best time to visit Cambodia for outdoor activities and sightseeing.
The wet season is marked by heavy rainfall, particularly in the afternoons. Temperatures remain warm, ranging from 75°F to 90°F (24°C to 32°C), but high humidity is common during this period. Flooding can occur in some regions.
The official currency of Cambodia is the Cambodian Riel (KHR). However, the US Dollar (USD) is widely used, especially in cities and tourist areas.
Riel banknotes are available in denominations of 50, 100, 500, 1000, 2000, 5000, 10,000, 20,000, 50,000, and 100,000 KHR. US Dollar notes are also commonly used, but coins are rarely in circulation.
Currency exchange services are available in major cities, airports, and tourist areas. ATMs are widespread, allowing you to withdraw both USD and KHR. The exchange rate between USD and KHR is typically around 1 USD = 4000 KHR.
Credit and debit cards are accepted in hotels, restaurants, and shops in urban areas, but cash is still preferred, especially in rural areas. It’s advisable to carry small change in both KHR and USD.
