Foreign Correspondents' Club, Phnom Penh, Colonial building near Tonle Sap River in Phnom Penh, Cambodia.

The Foreign Correspondents' Club is a three-story building at the confluence of the Tonle Sap and Mekong rivers. Spacious terraces offer views of both waterways and make it a prominent spot along the water.

It was founded in 1993 after the Paris Peace Agreements paved the way for Cambodia's reconstruction following conflict. The venue quickly became a hub for international journalists covering this period of transformation.

The walls hold photographs from the Khmer Rouge era, telling stories from Cambodia's recent past. Visitors see documentary images that offer insight into this important chapter.

The building functions as a restaurant, bar, and hotel, serving visitors with different needs. The terraces are accessible throughout the day and offer a retreat with views.

The venue hosted a visit from the US Secretary of State in 2016, underscoring its importance as a diplomatic meeting point. Such high-level visits demonstrate the site's continued international relevance.
