Base on the knowledge that I have learned from highschool, "Watphnom" was the place where they started and also in the middle of PhnomPenh capital city, surrounded by rivers & canals. There was an old woman who had found and taken some statues of Buddha from a big wood that floated on a river. She asked other villagers to make a high hill to put all the Buddha statues, so that place is now called WATPHNOM (Mountain Temple). It is one of many places for you to visit when u come to Cambodia or Phnom Penh city. The woman's name was Dun Penh (Grandmother Penh).
