Within the Royal Palace compound is the extravagant Silver Pagoda, also known as Wat Preah Keo or Temple of the Emerald Buddha. It is so named for its floor, which is covered with five tons of gleaming silver.
It was a sweltering and humid day so the highlight for me was finding a tree shaded temple of Buddha statues where I could sit and recover. Mum, you would definitely struggle with the heat!
I also loved the old murals that stretched along the walls.
