== Hitching out ==
=== South towards [[Kampot]], [[Sihanoukville]], [[Koh Kong]] ===
There is a roundabout called Choam ChaoChaom Chau (វង្វង់មូលចោមចៅ) [11.5344N, 104.8296E], 12 km from the city center or 2 .6 km from the airport entrance. This is where the national roads NH3 and NH4 start, one (south) to Kampot and one NH4 (west) to Sihanoukvillestart. This makes a good hitchhiking spot. A tuk-tuk from the train station will be between 2 US$ and 6 US$, depending on the time and how good you haggle.

Otherwise, head south on Chamkar Doung Road towards the Killing Fields (ជើងឯក) from the Sokimex Petrol Station, and hitchhike from there. === North towards [[Siem Reap]], [[Laos]], [[Kratie]], [[Mondulkiri]], [[Ratanakiri]] === Beyond the [https://www.google.com.kh/maps/place/11%C2%B035'21.8%22N+104%C2%B055'37.6%22E/@11.5894052,104.9249113,714m/data=!3m2!1e3!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0x0!8m2!3d11.5894!4d104.9271 four-faced statue across the Chroy Changvar bridge] [11.5894N, 104.9271E] following the NH6 is good for hitchhiking. === Northwest towards [[Udong]], [[Kampong Chhnang]], [[Pursat]], [[Battambang]], [[Poi Pet]], [[Bangkok]] === Take the Public Bus Line 1 as far north as it goes [11.63527N, 104.8868E], or alternatively take a remorque just north of Chroy Changvar bridge [approx. 11.5872N, 104.91914E], which usually go as far as Udong (about 40km away).
== Public Transport ==
 Since late 2014 Phnom Penh now has a very small bus network of three routes. The most interesting is [https://www.google.com/search?q=openstreetmap+relation+line+03&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8#q=openstreetmap+relation+line+03+Chom+Chav+Roundabout line 3 ] along ''Confederation de la Russie'' between the night market by the river in the east and past the airport to the Choam Chao roundabout. The bus is air-conditioned, comfortable, and not crowded. Tickets are KHR 1,500. Otherwise you can use Tuk-Tuks or motorbike-taxis to leave the city.  == Nomadwiki & Trashwiki == {{nomadwiki}}
