A Tico
a man and five beautiful young ladies Bruno: Lucy, Celia, Anne-So, Lila and Noémie. A desire
nagging us for quite some time: Visit the Bokor.
We were all briefed before but the site is officially closed, the entry amounted to thirty dollars per person, which really is not given ...
And then we learned that the site would open its doors for the Chinese New Year! The occasion was too beautiful to be a magnifying glass and we went there.
First, some explanation of Bokor:
This is a health resort, situated at over 1000 meters above sea level near Kampot (the "big" city near Kep).
The air is fresh and beautiful view from the summit. The French have started to come on holiday in the early 1920s and have opened a Grand hotel-casino, the Bokor Palace in 1925.
Abandoned during the dark years of Cambodia, in 1979 it was the scene of clashes between Vietnamese and Khmer Rouge.
Since then, despite numerous projects, she has never (yet) been rehabilitated.
The road to Bokor is winding but in good condition thanks to construction of luxury resorts. In many places besides the mountain resembles a huge construction site.
We began by visiting a country church of the froggiest ... Down which extended a tropical jungle which came to our ears of many exotic sounds.
From there we went on foot to the Bokor Palace ...
Vision, this carcass standing out in the blue sky We were all excited and it's full of enthusiasm that we ventured into the building!
suites through the terraces, kitchens, laundry, large lounge, what a pleasure to get lost in the corridors, to hide, to be called down stairs ...
Well, it would be a little less fun for the few other tourists who had the idea coming at the same time that we ...
We ended up a nice little picnic brought Vietnamese market Kampot in the shadow of magnificent waterfalls dry, but nevertheless beautiful.
In this nice day, we draw several conclusions
- 3 front, 3 behind the figures are perfect for traveling the world Tico, especially when one of the country and the Bee Gees in the cassette player.
- The French may be grumpy but that's not an evil, all happy and group it is unbearable!
- We've done really well to visit the Bokor was really great.
- Would not it be stupid to return to the rainy season, just to be able to admire the beautiful waterfall at the top of his form ...
- It is imperative that we go spend some time in Vietnam (where it is causing our taste).
A big kiss, Naomi and Bruno
