Boeung Keng Kang 1 (BKK1,) Phnom Penh, Cambodia

Canby Publications, Phnom Penh, Cambodia

The Boeung Keng Kang area, (bordered by Sihanouk Blvd, Norodom Blvd, Mao Tse Toung Blvd and Monivong Blvd,) has been considered the city’s ‘foreigner’s quarter’ since the 1980s. The area is base to many NGOs, embassies and international organizations as well as expatriate residences, hotels and apartments catering to long-term visitors. The whole of Boeung Keng Kang 1 (BKK1) is dotted with visitor-oriented businesses - hotels, restaurants, bars, shops, spas, travel agents and realtors, with the greatest concentration of businesses at the northern end on and around Street 278/282, particularly between Streets 51 and 63. Street 278 is lined with restaurants, bars, shops and small hotels frequented by an interesting mix of NGO/IO workers, tourists and expatriates. The Street 278 area is well worth a visit and a stroll anytime of day, but especially for lunch or dinner, or even better, in the early evening when the bars are cafés are full and the street is at its liveliest.
