    Urban Tales Walking Tour

    🚶 Walking Tours Phnom Penh 4.6/5(720 reviews)

    Urban Tales leads walking tours that decode Phnom Penh's fascinating architectural layers — from French colonial villas and Art Deco shophouses to the revolutionary "New Khmer Architecture" movement of the 1960s and the contemporary street art scene. Guides are architecture enthusiasts who explain how each era's buildings reflect Cambodia's political and cultural history. The tour passes iconic buildings by Vann Molyvann (Cambodia's most famous architect), hidden colonial courtyards, and the best street art murals. You'll see Phnom Penh with entirely new eyes.
