SPECIAL TOURS: Front du Bassac, the Chaktomuk Theatre and 'The Building'
A unique opportunity to learn about this fascinating part of Phnom Penh, your participation will financially contribute to preserving the memory of one of the most iconic symbols of Phnom Penh and its community: the Municipal Apartments in Tonle Bassac, or as it is otherwise known, the White Building or just "the Building".

On the tour you will be introduced to the Building by its residents as well as its artists, with the assistance of On Photography Cambodia (OPC) and Cambodia Living Arts.
All the proceeds from tour fees and donations will support the production of a photographic exhibition and book by OPC entitled "The Building". The international launch of the project is to take place in June at the Bophana Audiovisual Resource Center in Phnom Penh.

The tour will include the Front du Bassac area and the Chaktomuk Theatre.
