Thanks, Rainy.
Your journals certainly are unique in that you really bring your distinations to life. You do this by consistently showing not just the "touristy" sights, but all aspects of daily life, the menial was well as the deluxe. A really fine article once again.

Ben:
One sees those bottles of gasoline all over SE Asia. The gas is basically for motorbikes. Selling gas in those containers would be highly illegal here LOL

Thanks Rainy for another interesting article on the Cambodian daily life in Siem Reap. The stilt houses are very interesting and there are still some in Hong Kong (Lantau Island). Just to clarify, for the gas station, do the bottles contain gasoline and that is how they sell gasoline in that part of town?
