There isn’t a lot left in Cambodia to reflect the long colonization by the French. French bread–baguettes–is surprisingly plentiful and popular on the streets, and all the doctors write prescriptions in French–which basically people don’t understand, but, hey, this is Cambodia, why should a patient understand what she is taking and why. Around Phnom Penh there are still some beautiful remnants of French colonial architecture but many of them are disappearing fast. This is one old French-era building that has been preserved as a reminder of bygone days.
