Phnom Penh, Cambodia’s capital, blends French colonial charm with rich history and growing modern energy. Set along the Mekong River, it attracts international visitors with landmarks like the Royal Palace, Silver Pagoda, and National Museum. With improving infrastructure, diverse dining, and expanding air links, the city is gaining traction as a well-rounded destination in Southeast Asia.
Golf in Phnom Penh complements this appeal, offering top-tier courses near the city center:
• Vattanac Golf Resort: Just 30 minutes from downtown, this leading facility has two 18-hole layouts by Sir Nick Faldo. The East Course features scaled replicas of Cambodian heritage sites, merging golf with culture.
• Garden City Golf Club: Managed by IMG, this course offers modern facilities and consistent conditions. Located 25 minutes from the city, it suits players of all levels.
• Grand Phnom Penh Golf Club: A Jack Nicklaus design with wide fairways and challenging greens, just 20 minutes from downtown.
• Royal Cambodia Phnom Penh Golf Club: Close to the center, this flat course features local trees and water on 12 holes.
• Chhun On Golf Resort: A newer 18-hole course north of the city with palm-lined fairways and a calm rural setting.
With reliable transportation, strong course maintenance, and year-round playability, Phnom Penh is ideal for short-haul escapes or multi-country Southeast Asia golf itineraries.
