This day celebrates Cambodia's independence from France which was achieved in 1953. Festivities take place all over the country but particularly in the capital of Phnom Penh at the Independence Monument. Shaped like a lotus flower, the monument is one of the city's most easily-recognised landmarks. The King usually attends the celebrations and delivers a speech to the crowds.
