The legend of Phnom Penh city


Long time ago there was a woman name Penh. She lived in one village of one province. Penh was an honor. One day there was a storm and also the flood water. The flood water brang the big wood and inside the wood was five stone divinities. And that big wood was under Penh's house. She wondered and she went to find out what that was. When she saw the wood and also saw the stone divinities, she called all the people in the village to look at that. And then she got the stone divinities to clean and kept in a nice place. The next morning she decided to pile up the mountain to keep the five stone divinities and the mountain called Phnom. All the people piled the mountain every time and every hours as fast as they can. When the people finished pile up the mountain they started to build the pagoda for people prayed and asked for happiness in life. And after one year the people always went on that mountain and that mountain they called in PHNOM PENH.
