Angkor Wat exceeded all my expectations and would highly recommend it to everyone. It truly deserves to be a UNESCO site. Nearby Angkor Tom and other temples in the area are equally beautiful so allow enough time to see those as well. I opted for a private tour, which is well worth the money. It is about $25 for the... more

Angkor Wat (Angkor temple) is the central feature of this UNESCO World Heritage Site containing the magnificent remains of the Khmer civilization. Angkor Wat's rising series of five towers culminates in an impressive central tower that symbolizes mythical Mount Meru. Thousands of feet of wall space are covered with intricate carving depicting scenes from Hindu mythology.

Angkor lives up to its reputation. With ruins more than 1,000 years old, it is a must-see on a trip through southeast Asia. I have visited a number of historic sites and Angkor is definitely among the most interesting. Be sure to arrange a guide who is knowledgeable among Angkor. We were very fortunate to arrange Soluy Loert based on... more

Upon my first sight of Angkor Wat after I alight from my coach, I stool still for minutes taking one deep breadth at a time. It was like I have forgotten how to breadth while I was wondering if the sight of Angkor was real. The rest of the journey was indescribable. You have to visit this temple in order... more

A truly magnificent site. I will run out of words just to describe this incredible place. Angkor Wat was just one of the many temples that were built during the Angkor era back in the 9th to 11th century. Other recommended sites would be Angkor Thom, Bantay Srei, Ta Phrom, etc. I was very impressed and blown away by the... more

If you are a nut for historical sites, if you love the Pyramids, Machu Picchu, Chichen Itzen, Stonehenge, The Great Wall Of China, or love wondering around big churches and temples, you have to see the Angkor temples. Angkor Wat, Angkor Thom (Bayon, Baphuon), Baentey Srey, Ta Phrom, are all worth a visit. All of these major temples will blow... more

I'm not one to join a group tour, but if you're headed for Cambodia to see Angkor Wat, I HIGHLY reccommend going with a tour. Avoid local places. Stick to the tourist areas. Don't trust the ice, produce and you know all that. Fly in and fly out. Overland from Bangkok took us 13 hours, with a broken down van... more

My husband and I just returned from 5 days in Siem Reap. I am a nut when it comes to historic spots and love to spend hours in ruins and museums. My husband, not so much. Siem Reap was a great place for us. Best way to see the ruins is by tuk tuk. Really gives you a feel for... more

WHAT TO DO AT ANGKOR AND SIEM REAP. 1. You need at least a minimum of 3 nights stay at Siem Reap to see all the main temples. 2. Firstly, get a really good guide. Mine was recommended by Mike and her name was Soluy Loert (you can see his recommendation here in tripadviser too). Soluy packed in a 3... more

If you are travelling in Asia, Ankor Wat Temples in Cambodia is one of the "must see" locations. The 7 hours journey by bus on a bumpy road from the capital is well worth it when you see the sunrise at 5am from one of the temples. It just takes 3 days from your trip to Vietnam or Thailand to... more
