Skyscrapers of Phnom Penh, Cambodia

🇰🇭 សមសវគមនមកកនរជធនភនពញ បរទសកមពជ! ### Welcome to Phnom Penh, Cambodia! These models were created by Dany Sánchez, including: - Canadia Bank Tower

• Vattanac Tower
• Gold Tower 42 These are some of the most iconic buildings in Phnom Penh, capital of Cambodia, which has sprung high-rise buildings all over the place in just a mere 10 years—and more on the way. The Canadia Tower is regarded by locals as the first skyscraper of the city. Finished in 2009, it kickstarted the building craze and amazed people, many of which had never seen a building this tall, at 112 m (367 ft). It has since been dwarved by almost everything else! The Vattanac Capital Tower is probably the most recognizable and unique building in Cambodia today. It rises 187 m (613 ft) and is located only a couple blocks north of the Canadia Tower, in the heart of the city. It opened in 2014 and quickly surpassed its neighbor, being the tallest building in Phnom Penh until 2021. It is linked to Vattanac Bank, and has a luxury mall, hotel and office space. Its unique shape is inspired by Khmer nagas, a mythical cobra-like snake with many heads. It has been shrouded in controversy because of the high maintenance costs stemming from its awkward shapes, and for the impossibly high costs that keep most of its floors and mall unoccupied. Lastly, the Gold Tower 42 also has a strange story, remaining unfinished at the time of this publication, despite construction having started in 2008! It is the tallest of the 3, and was the tallest building in the city at 195 m (639 ft) until it was surpassed by The Peak complex in 2021. It is clad in yellow glass, where its name comes from (from Wikipedia). MiniWorld3D is happy to bring this historical model to life as a homage to all the people of Phnom Penh.

Minimal or no infill are possible. Use brims or rafts to reduce leverage when printing the tallest parts. When the printer is working on the tallest parts, there may be some wobble, which may cause the building to come off the print bed.
