The Casino's name in Phnom Penh is Nagaworld. According to legend, Nagaworld derived its name from the mythical fable of a 7-headed dragon or “Naga.” The majestic dragon was believed to be residing in the rivers and guarding the entrance to Phnom Penh. The tale revealed its only sighting during the appearance of a rainbow and was thus considered highly auspicious. Reminiscent of a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow, Nagaworld was thereafter likened to a promising symbol of new beginnings and prosperity.

Phnom Penh's Nagaworld Casino and its five-star hotel is one of Cambodia's biggest private employers with more than 3,000 staff, who take care of all the visitors. It opened it's doors in 1995.
The Casino is non-stop 24 hours a day open and it has an inside air-conditioned controlled temperature of 21 degrees. Nagaworld is a 14 storey hotel and entertainment complex, with more than 500 bedrooms, 14 restaurants and bars, 700 slot machines and 200 gambling tables. The spirit of adventure is effervescent in the exquisitely themed public gaming halls.
There is also a spa, karaoke lounges and VIP suites, gaming machines, live bands, and a nightclub. Its monolithic building dominates the skyline at the meeting point of the Mekong and Tonle Sap rivers, in stark contrast to nearby intricate Khmer architecture.
Gamblers can play at the Pagoda Garden Park, an indoor air-conditioned gambling facility inside Nagaworld casino complex.
