Given the recent history of Cambodia, you might wonder why I refer to it as the happiest place on earth. Well, there is the real reason, if you know what happy means in Cambodian slang. Cambodia is in Southeast Asia. It is bordered to the west of Thailand, Laos and Vietnam in the northeast.

Reign of Terror is a phrase often used, but not when it comes to the Khmer Rouge. The group performs what can only be called bizarre policies and was able to starve and murder of about twenty percent of the total population of Cambodia. Reign of terror was finally ended when Vietnam invaded and pushed the Khmer in small, isolated country in the far north.

Thailand is a very touristy, so I went to the wilderness Cambodia.
When you walk through the capital Phnom Penh, it seems as if nothing had happened. Signs literally say “Happy Dinner”, “happy pizza” and so on. Gosh, these people are happy. As you might think, fortunately has a special connotation in Cambodia. Used as a spice, namely, it is clear that in the food sector.

At the end of the day, I found a great place to Cambodia to enjoy, regardless of his past and a Happy Meal. So go ahead and take off to Cambodia, but try to remember as a happy meal!

1) Donsol, Philippines In this city on the south coast of Luzon in the only place where the Sharks – the largest fish in the sea will come to feed.

2) Angkor Wat, Cambodia Misto Angkor in Cambodia, it is necessary for someone to drive South-East Asia.

3) Full Moon Party, Koh Pan Gan, Thailand, the legendary Full Moon Party has for several years, starting with only a few people today with at least 10,000 people per month.

4) The motorcycle tour to Vietnam, he rides his own bike (or if not you can hire a chauffeur), Vietnam will be around towns and cities where no tourists go is one of the highlights of this trip.

5) Palawan, Philippines, this island in the southwest of the Philippines is a hidden gem of Southeast Asia. In any place you find more than 50 backpackers on the island, and it’s big island. Picture a cross between the islands around Krabi, Thailand, and throw in the Ha Long Bay, Vietnam, and this makes the coastal town of El Nido. There is some of the best diving and snorkeling to be done in many coral reefs, many white sandy beaches and swimming in the tank with small sharks, or just relax and enjoy the Sun Island is also one of the longest underground rivers in the world.

6) Ha Long Bay, Bay has almost 2,000 limestone islands, caves to explore and several lagoons go kayaking in.

7) Vang Vieng, Laos This is a great party town. You get a tractor and soul floats the river and stop at bars along the route and get free shots of Lao Lao whiskey and then drink more whiskey buckets lao lao and coke eighteen hours later, when you think you have enough you can go to the island , which is just bars (smile is the best) to middnight curfew kicks in. The first bar is the largest independently of the other bars on the right.

Gili Islands, Indonesia Gilis consists of three islands, Gili Trawangan with the greatest of all. You came here on the beaches and diving with sharks and manta ray relax on one of the best places on earth.

9) Hoi An, Vietnam Hoi An is situated on the coast and has a fairly decent beach.

In the corner Burma, Laos is one of the most landlocked countries in Southeast Asia. Known as the country one million elephants, Laos is filled with wooded landscapes and rugged mountains all the time. With the economy on an upward slide, tourism is the main source of income in Laos. Great spiritual cave dug into the limestone cliff, overlooking the river is what the Pak Ou caves so popular. Caves full of Buddha images in different styles and shapes, but the beautiful Luang Prabang is a model of the Buddha.

Ordinary glass is a popular destination for tourists who stay in Laos. The only reason why the place was called the plain glasses is more than the coastal areas, there are an enormous glass scattered everywhere. Known for the largest waterfall in Asia, Khon Phapheng is beautiful and breathtaking. It is located in the southern part of Si Phan Thurs.

A place that is special for the people of Laos is Pha That Laung. This is where you see Budhhism and Lao sovereignty go hand in hand. The main festival takes place here every year in November, which highlighted areas. Small structure that is very small compared to the Angkor era sites Wat Phu is a monument that is very unique. Ornate shrine of Shiva, the Crocodile and stone are what make the place so popular in the midst of a mysterious visitor.
