Built in the traditional classical style, this is a very striking complex of buildings. The Cambodian King still lives here - but tourists are not allowed anywhere near where he lives. While we were walking round, I noticed some dignitaries were being driven out of the main gate. As the driver stopped at the gate, the rear window was wound down and someone was giving money to several lackeys who had rushed up to the car. Somehow I don't see Prince Charles handing out fivers to the guards as he passes out of Buckingham Palace!
