Royal Residence

The Royal Residence in Siem Reap holds a distinct, bright yellow exterior that sets it apart from the surrounding dense tropical greenery. This building serves as the official home for the Cambodian royal family whenever they visit the province. King Norodom Sihanouk stayed here during his frequent trips to inspect the temple sites. His staff famously kept a small, private collection of local artifacts inside the rooms, turning a portion of the residence into a quiet, personal museum of his royal duties.
