Cambodia-Phnom Penh:

Wat-Phnom is a small man-made hill twenty seven meters high in the middle of Phnom Penh. The legend of the founding of Wat Phnom is tied to the beginnings of Phnom Penh. The story is that in 1372 a old woman named Lady Penh (Daun Penh or Yeay Penh in Khmer) fished a floating Koki out of the Mekong River. She found four Buddha Statues in side that tree. Then she built a hill -Phnom and a small temple -Wat so now it named Wat-Phnom .

Wat Phnom has a unique atmosphere and its surrounded by various big tresses, fresh air, mystics and elephant rides around the sites.
