MitchS

Cool to see Cambodia on film nearly 100 years ago. In a lot of areas, not much has changed!

Enjoy!

OH! it's working now! It's there.
There's 3 video's from 20's and 30's. Also early sketches of Angkor Wat from the 1800's.

Very cool,

fascinating to see Cambodia so far back in time.

Do you have any others?

jasonburmis1980

are there any photos like this?

MitchS

Ya, there's some on that same page. Just look for the link saying "Old Photos"

Seeing all this really makes me see how Cambodia was certainly a lot more bustling than I ever imagined that many years ago.
