Impression

Phnom Penh is the capital and largest city of Cambodia. Literally, its name translates as "Penya Hill". This place is a real treasure trove of cultural traditions and historical monuments of the country. Here you can see impressive ancient buildings belonging to the traditional Khemer style. It is no coincidence that Phnom Penh is considered the tourist pearl of Cambodia, because here are concentrated the main beauties of this mysterious and mystical nation.

Description

NagaWorld has a rather interesting mystical story behind its name. A mythical tale tells of the seven-headed dragon Naga, who, according to legend, lives in the rivers of Phnom Penh and zealously guards the entrance to the city. This creature could be seen only when the rainbow appeared, so its appearance was considered a very auspicious event. With this name, NagaWorld became a promising symbol of new beginnings and prosperity.

NagaWorld Hotel & Entertainment Complex story

NagaWorld Casino was founded in Phnom Penh, the capital of Cambodia. It began its existence on May 1, 1995. At that time the establishment was located in a boat moored on the Mekong River. Already in 2003, it moved into its main building, and now NagaWorld is considered the largest gaming and hotel-entertainment complex in the country.

The founder of the project is a company NagaCorp Ltd, registered in Hong Kong. It is headed by one of Malaysia's richest men, businessman Chen Lip Keong. The company specializes in gambling and hospitality and has a 70-year casino license in Cambodia that will expire in 2065.

In 2006, it was NagaCorp Ltd. In 2006, it was NagaCorp Ltd. that went public on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and became the first gambling company to trade on the stock exchanges.

Since 1996, Cambodia has had a Law on Suppression of Gambling, which prohibits its citizens from visiting gambling establishments as well as gambling on the Internet. Whereas foreign tourists are always allowed to enter casinos.

NagaWorld is a huge entertainment complex with a large number of restaurants, a hotel, gambling halls and other options on its territory. The establishment is divided into 3 main buildings: the NagaWorld itself (in operation since 2006), its expansion Naga 2 (opened in 2017) and Naga 3 (under construction).

Entertainment

Since 1979, Phnom Penh has been the main tourist, historical and economic center of Cambodia. Formerly called the "Pearl of Asia", the city has many colorful and ancient sights that are truly breathtaking. It's a big mistake to be in Phnom Penh and not explore the city's neighborhoods, even though NagaWorld is rich in activities.

Most of the beauties are located right next to the casino building:

1. The Silver Pagoda, which is reached by an ancient marble staircase. Inside, you'll see two impressive depictions of the Buddha's courtyard.
2. The Independence Monument is a majestic monument located right in the center of the city.
   King's Palace with its striking architecture and equally amazing structure, overlooking right on the picturesque waterfront.
   
3. The National Museum is quite an interesting building in bright rusty red hues. It is considered the main historical and archaeological museum of Cambodia.
   
4. Wat Phnom or Temple on the Hill is Phnom Penh's most important architectural landmark and is a must see.
   
5. The Central Market will amaze you not only with its colorful merchandise but also with its Art Deco exterior. It's a sort of white and gold dome with four branches to match.
   
6. The Russian Market is another highlight of the city. It gained popularity in the 1980s thanks to Russian emigrants. Here you can find authentic antiques, souvenirs and much more.

Besides the most key objects on the way you will meet many unusual and interesting things. On top of that, Phnom Penh has a beautiful waterfront to stroll along, as well as the option of a river trip. The wide Mekong River runs through the entire length of the city, so you can get to know this mysterious and alluring place as much as possible on this walk.

• Restaurants and bars, of which there are more than 20;

Services

The casino has many entertainment services on site, up to and including organizing events including weddings and birthday parties. Phnom Penh has no problem accepting U.S. currency, but you'll need the national currency, the riel, for small purchases and transportation. NagaWorld recommends carrying some Cambodian bills.

It is important to keep in mind that Cambodia is a country with a conservative culture and a certain set of rules of life that may not be familiar to visitors. We recommend familiarizing yourself with what you should do and what is strictly forbidden in the country.

You should:

• Take off your shoes before entering a temple or someone's house;
• Enter a temple with your knees and shoulders covered;
• Do not take photos without permission from monks and locals;
• Carefully monitor the whereabouts of your bank cards.

No:

• Pointing at someone with your feet;
• Touching the head of a local;
• Women are not allowed to touch monks or give anything to them;
• Minimize public displays of affection;
• Shouting, talking loudly and drawing attention to yourself;
• Do not give money to children met on the streets, as this encourages them not to go to school.

Loyalty program

Junket tours

The junket tour service can be ordered by any avid casino player. It is better for beginners not to experiment, because in a junket situation the player commits to certain bets. The advantage of such tours is that special operators fully organize your trip to a particular casino, order plane tickets, transfers and hotel reservations, and you, in turn, sign a contract with the gambling establishment, in which you commit to certain conditions.

In general, a junket tour is a full-fledged all-inclusive tourist tour, where the client pays a specific amount of money and gets more opportunities.
