Tree-Lined Boulevard with Cyclo and Pedestrian, Phnom Penh, Cambodia, c. 1960s-Early 1970s
A quiet, tree-shaded boulevard in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, photographed in the 1960s or early 1970s. A cyclo (pedicab) and pedestrians move along the avenue, flanked by colonial-era and mid-century modern buildings. Scenes such as this capture the city in the years before the Cambodian Civil War, when Phnom Penh was celebrated as one of Southeast Asia's most graceful capitals. Project: 218694
