Phnom Penh's Changing Skyline

You may or may not know that Cambodia is planing to build Asia's tallest building. The specs are unclear but the height of the new tower is supposed to be 555 meters. Thats taller than the Taipei 101. I was out on the Tonle Sap and snapped these shots of the city's skyline where buildings are sprouting like weeds. Undoubtably the skyline will change dramatically in the next 5 years.
