Description
Our tour guide is getting a drink at a stand that is strategically located within the vicinity of Angkor Wat and Angkor Thom, where the majority of visitors must pass. The prices are definitely geared toward tourists since the per capita income in Cambodia is about $750 to $800, which translate to an income of about $15 per week per person.

Location! Location! Location! it always works!
Great capture
The same rip-off the world over!
Shining shot.
Yes, prices are too expensive for local peoples. I think they can have a more affordable expresso in another place. At least, I understood she sells expresso ;-) Their alphabet is beautiful but unreadable for us !
Cool, great capture!
did you drink the coffee? very candid capture
Response to some of the comments. @durleybeachbum: You are so right Andrea, it doesn't matter where one goes, there are always people trying to make an easy buck!
@virginiese: Virginie these are drinks for foreigners, the locals not only can't afford them, they don't drink stuff like that.
@Richardphotos: No Richard. It was stiflingly hot and humid (both in the upper 90's), and it was not a place to drink coffee, besides the atmosphere was not right. All I drank while I was over there was bottled water, maybe juice if it was provided in the morning, and a beer (or wine) with my meal at night,
wonderful
Great capture.
Dein neuer Schnappschuss ist SUPER, ich komme kurz vorbei einige Kommentare machen, es ist viel zu heiß (35 Grad im Schatten), um Kartons zu füllen!
Superb capture my friend. God bless.
Very great shot as always !!!
salute
Very good capture!
