The Kings Funeral Procession 1-4th Feb - Whats effected?

Mattgilesc3

Hi I'm visiting PP for the first time on the 1st of Feb for 2 days. I'm stopping at the Walkabout Hotel.

My first question is due to the roads being closed on the 1st will I be able to get to my hotel from the Airport?

My second is will the bars be shut? And if so will this be permanent until the kings funeral is finished on the 4th or will it just be for the 1st until he passes through?

Any other info on things that will be effected like museum closers or the usual tourist stuff shutting would be a great help.

Thanks

If you have cash in your pocket, I assure you nothing will be affected.
The police here make $50 a month. If they should have anything to say about anything, a crisp George Washington will settle matters.
A nuclear blast wouldn't shut down the bars or prevent the girls from performing their duties. Welcome to Cambodia !

1. The roads from the airport to Street 51 will not be closed, I imagine streets will be closed close to the Palace though.

2. Sometimes alcohol will not be for sale on such events,even if bars are not able to sell alcohol, behind closed doors things go on, as long as alcohol is not being consumed outside the bars it should be okay. Who knows when streets are open again? Things happen without any real info being given out here.

3. Museum should be open, but could be closed as I imagine gov offices and the post office will be closed.

All in all, who knows at the moment, I have never been without a during on any event here.
