Located 41 km northwest of Phnom Penh, Phnom Udong was Cambodia’s royal capital from 1618 to 1866. This sacred mountain, set on twin hills overlooking the Kandal plains, is crowned with ancient stupas and temples that honor former Khmer kings and house sacred relics. Visitors climb over 500 stone steps to reach the summit, where stunning structures like the Preah Shakyamuni Chedi, built in 2002 to enshrine Buddha’s relics, shine beside older stupas such as Damrei Sam Poan and Ang Duong.
