I have been to Angkor Wat and I can only say that it's one of the most amazing sites I've ever seen. It really is an iconic temple from this region of Cambodia and without a doubt the largest one. If you want to take in the beauty of temples at sunrise or sunset, visiting 6 temples during a tour I can recommend is the best option.

Words and pictures can't do justice to the mesmerizing effect this place has on you. A place revered by people for centuries, a place to meet the divine, a place people kept alive, a place that shows you history, and a place that talks to you personally. I visited here thrice, once at a cool morning, once at scenic late evening, and once during a hot afternoon and loved it through and through. Will visit again!

It is a magnificent temple complex located in Cambodia and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Dating back to the 12th century, Angkor Wat is one of the largest religious monuments in the world and is known for its intricate carvings and beautiful architecture. It is definitely a must-visit destination for anyone interested in history or architecture. If you plan on visiting Angkor Wat, we recommend bringing comfortable walking shoes, sunscreen, and plenty of water, as the complex is quite large and can be quite hot during the day.

Marvelous. The greatest temple complex of all time. After visiting so many temples in India, the grandeur here is not comparable at all. This temple, not in Wonders of the World, really? 1. Take a guide if you don't know about Hinduism/culture. Guide can show you the important items to visit in short span of time, also a bit of twisted history. 2. The temple was built for Vishnu, Shiva and other Hindu gods. Now mostly broken. Vishnu converted to Buddha. Lakshmi and other gods got beheaded. 3. Once certainly need 6 hours to ensure visit of all the structures (if you are on a 3 day pass). 3 hours is reasonable (if you are on one day pass, there are many temples around). 4. The inner walls (two each side, eight in total) with bas reliefs depicting Hindu concepts. Ensure to visit all, don't regret later. 5. The central sanctorum is in the third level, steep climbing. Old Vishnu/Shiva references have got cemented. Still you can have a good view of the complex from the top. Visited during August, not much crowd.

This place has such an amazing vibe. It is a pleasure to be here and experience the rich history of Love between Hinduism & Buddhism. You must plan to visit here one day in advance. You have to personally visit the ticket centre where they will take your pictures and print on ticket as well. I took one day pass but you can also take 3 or 7 day pass. There are 11 temples to visit only in inner circle that may take 2 - 3 days. I visited only main temple and other temple where TOMB RIDER was shoot. Beautiful place. Must visit

The day these photos were taken was characterized by overcast and gloomy weather. Despite the day's dullness, the black and white filter applied to the images adds an authentic touch that perfectly captures the moment's mood. The monochrome effect creates a timeless feel and highlights the intricate details of the images, such as the textures, patterns, and shadows. I hope you enjoy the photos and appreciate the artistic expression conveyed through them 🌹

This is one of the most beautiful places on earth, the eighth wonder of the world, such a magical experience! It’s a phenomenon that they can preserve heaven on earth for 2000 years. This is where the vortex is keeping this place, pristine and allowing us all to enjoy. It is a miracle. Thousand years later it still here be sure and visit

Went for the sunrise tour and was not disappointed. It's an incredible structure that took 30 years to build, and the stones were transported from a Quarry 70km away by bamboo boat and elephant. The views as the sun rises are amazing

10/10 recommend. Get a 3 day pass. We had a small group on mopeds and went from sun up to sun down. Spent 13 hrs in the park and it still wasn’t enough. I’d recommend 3x 6 hour days to cut it up and really appreciate the temples. Doing them all day long got exhausting. I’d also recommend doing them on your own on mopeds if you’re more of a go at your own pace type of person. Was fairly inexpensive as you can find mopeds all around town. *important note: Must buy tickets in advance. All roads that lead to temples will have a little booth you have to stop at to present your ticket. They occasionally will ask you in the parks as well.

We visited Angkor Wat on Sat 30 Mar 2024. It was an amazing place. The way of construction, the layout, the stone sculptures were fascinating. It was sad to see the ruins but imagine how magnificent it would have been in its heyday in the 12th century. The downside was the heat and the humidity. But, it was well worth the visit!

Angkor Wat at the early morning (Sunrise) was amazing. Angkor Wat Temple is the largest religious in the world by land area of South East Asia. As the best-preserved temple at the site, Angkor Wat is the only one to have remained a significant religious centre since its foundation. The temple is at the top of the high classical style of Khmer architecture. Highly recommended to visit Angkor Wat. At Lest Once in life.

Truly the experience of a lifetime! We took a tour to see the sunrise over the temple and it was truly an amazing site. Almost the entire temple complex is open to be explored. You can visit the first, second, and the top levels of the temple. It was originally built as a Hindu Temple and was later converted into a Buddhist temple. Tons of history at the site. Beautiful carvings in the walls.

Angkor Wat was breath taking, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity you do not want to pass up. Be sure to arrive early for the sunrise, I recommend finding a nice hill to watch the sunrise and don’t bother taking a photos like me because there are better ones online. Just sit back and enjoy the sunrise. The temple itself is extremely detailed I spend hours roaming around absorbing all the ancient architecture. Don’t rush it, take your time and soak it all in. Also I recommend reading about the history, it’s quite fascinating and will give great inside into what your actually seeing.

It is so majestic. I have visited many times and I never get tired of it. The reliefs are so interesting and active. We went at opening and we were the only people there for about an hour. All the sun rise watchers left as we arrived around 7.

Magnificent temple complex, slowly being restored. Spent 5 hours touring the grounds. The temple is a mix of early Hindu and Buddhist artwork, and climbing the central structure offers great views of the temple grounds and jungle.

The greatest wonder in Cambodia. I love the ancient, peaceful beauty of this place and the green of nature inside the large temple. Many visitors here so don’t worry about being lost. Wearing short skirt is not allowed to go inside the temple (short pants and long skirt is allowed), if you wear short skirt, you need to buy sarong at the tourist area’s shop. By the way, be careful with monkeys inside the temple!

It is astounding and an impressive temple. Don't get me wrong...it is really really impressive. I was staying there for more than 2 hours and didn't want to leave. So why only four and not five stars. The outside is as I described impressive the inside not so. Yes you can walk through most of it see some statues and reliefs but I was flashed from the outside not the inside. We could walk up toe the third level and again the view of the outside amazing. It is a total must do of things to see in life 👍

Angkor Wat is truly breathtaking. We only stayed for 2 hours with the tour guide but wish we stayed longer! So much to see and really need a 3 day tour to see it all. The temples and architecture is out of this world. Can't much more than what has already been said in other reviews. Definitely should be on the top of your list of places to visit while I'm Cambodia.

Angkor Wat 🛕 is a breathtaking masterpiece that transcends the boundaries of time and culture. Nestled in the heart of 🇰🇭 Cambodia , this ancient temple complex is a testament to the ingenuity and architectural prowess of the Khmer civilization. The sheer scale of Angkor Wat is awe-inspiring, with its towering spires, intricate bas-reliefs, and expansive courtyards. Stepping into Angkor Wat feels like entering a living history book, where each stone tells a story of a bygone era. The intricate carvings on the temple walls depict scenes from Hindu epics and Khmer daily life, providing a vivid glimpse into the rich tapestry of Cambodian heritage. The sunrise and sunset views over the iconic lotus pond create a surreal atmosphere, casting a golden hue upon the ancient stones and transforming the temple into a mesmerizing spectacle. The preservation efforts undertaken by Cambodia and UNESCO are commendable, allowing visitors to marvel at the grandeur of Angkor Wat while respecting its historical significance. Exploring the temple's labyrinthine corridors and ascending to its uppermost levels provide a unique perspective, rewarding adventurers with panoramic views of the surrounding jungle and distant temple spires. Angkor Wat is not merely a static monument; it's a living testament to the resilience of Cambodia's cultural identity. Visiting this UNESCO World Heritage site is a profound journey through time, offering a deep appreciation for the craftsmanship, spirituality, and architectural brilliance that define Angkor Wat as one of humanity's greatest cultural treasures. Notes - Take enough time if you are visiting its huge and interesting Take Guide for all information carry water bottle wear comfortable clothes and foot wear

If it's in your bucket list, do it. Visiting this place is like no other. Only 90 of the 300 temples are in good condition. The main heritage site which is protected by UNESCO is a lot of walk. Contrary to what many visitors are told, the sunset can't be viewed from the site as it closes at 5 pm. The option is to climb on the hill near the entrance, the sunrise is a more realistic option. Worth to pay a photographer to take your photos and the local guides are very knowledgeable. The tickets can be bought online.

One the world's most amazing Khmer temple complexes. Large, fascinating, highly pleasant. Was constructed around 1100ad, took some 49 years I believe. Must see.

A breathtaking temple complex, beautiful from both the western and eastern entrances although the eastern with the palm trees and water was especially gorgeous. We went around 4pm on a weekday and it wasn’t too crowded. We hired a tour guide, who was helpful for showing us around and telling us all the detailed stories of the religion and history, although it also would be a nice place to explore at your own pace and feel uninhibited taking pictures.

I'm not a morning person but decided to do the sunrise tour of this temple complex and can say that getting up at 4am was totally worth it. The place is magical and the changing colors and mirror effect in the lake are amazing. Make sure to pack lots of water. It's hot and humid (another reason why going super early in the morning to this temple complex is a good idea).

Beautiful temple. Seeing it for sunrise is very beautiful and a good way to walk around before it gets too hot. I would recommend having a tour guide walk you through to tell you about the history and architecture! The stairs to get to the top are very steep but you can see great views from up there.

I went to see the sunrise and while it was slightly cloudy and it was not as amazing as expected, the whole experience was great. Arriving at night and navigating it in the darkness was really nice and it made the way back really especial. Really recommend going to the end of the temple and going back along the edge of the temple instead of through it. I actually found the temple less crowded that I expected.

Angkor Wat in Krong Siem Reap, Cambodia is a truly wondrous place, and a must-visit for anyone traveling to the region. It is one of the largest religious monuments in the world, and its architecture is simply breathtaking. I recently had the opportunity to visit Angkor Wat, and I was absolutely overwhelmed by its beauty and grandeur. I arrived at the temple complex early in the morning, before sunrise, and the crowds were already starting to gather. But even with so many people around, the atmosphere was still peaceful and serene. As the sun began to rise, the temple was bathed in a golden glow, and it was truly a sight to behold. I spent the entire day exploring Angkor Wat, and I still didn't feel like I had seen everything. The temple complex is vast, and there is so much to see and do. If you are planning a visit to Angkor Wat, I highly recommend that you take your time and explore at your own pace. There is no need to rush. Just relax and soak up the atmosphere of this truly magical place.

Wear comfortable shoes, lots of bug spray and plan to spend most of your day exploring! Angkor Wat, is a breath taking temple and hold’s so much importance to the Cambodian people that it should definitely be added to your must see places when visiting Siem Reap! I would recommend going for the sunrise viewing, but manage your expectations! There will be lots of other people there too and so finding a good photo spot might be a little tricky. If you would like a photo with a reflection of the temple, get to the lake on the right side of the temple as early as possible, otherwise a good spot is at one of the libraries just in front of the temple. After the temple doors open you can explore the grounds at your leisure, this was my favourite part. Warning: to get to the highest tower the stairs are very steep and the platform rocks a little, please take your time and be safe.

"Visiting Angkor Wat was an awe-inspiring experience! The grandeur of the temple complex, surrounded by lush greenery, left me speechless. Exploring the intricate carvings and towering structures felt like stepping back in time. Despite the crowds, the serene atmosphere within the temple grounds allowed me to appreciate the beauty and history of this UNESCO World Heritage site. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a glimpse into Cambodia's rich cultural heritage."

Discover the breathtaking beauty of Angkor Wat Temple, a world heritage site known for its stunning carvings and intricate architecture. Everyone in the world should visit this amazing temple at least once in life. It has beautiful views both Sunrise and Sunset. I always feel fresh when I arrived this temple 🥰

This must be a wonder of human civilization, the greatest monument of Hinduism and surreal sanctuary. The structure has zero flaw and every single detail is done properly, and the size of Angkor Wat is massive. Hard to believe that people back then could erect such complex without modern technology. You can’t miss this temple when traveling to Cambodia

Angkor Wat, a testament to architectural brilliance, is a mesmerizing marvel nestled in Cambodia. This UNESCO World Heritage site, deeply rooted in Hindu and Buddhist history, reflects the rich cultural heritage of India. Its intricate carvings and captivating aura instill a sense of pride in every Hinduthva heart. A must-visit for those seeking spiritual enlightenment and historical grandeur.

Bucket list item - Check. What a wonderful place to visit and just be amazed by the wonder of history. Take your time and visit all the spots on maybe 2 or 3 days. Tried to see everything in one day and was wiped out by 3pm. Still had a great day. Totally worth it.

The best place to see sunrise at the Angkor Wat temple. I do recommend you to purchase ticket online by website: Angkor Enterprise (only one website). It’s convenient for you guys when you have online ticket so u no need to go to the Angkor Park Pass Ticket Counter. I do strongly suggest you take a local guide as in Angkor wat temple, there are a lot of historical, religious and cultural. You will probably spend at least 3 hour there. Amazing temple !!!

The best way for solo travelers is to rent a moped for the day and visit all the temples at your own leisure. On the way you may get stopped to check if you have a ticket. Also they check tickets at the entrances of the temples. Park your moped and walk to the temples it's the easiest and quickest way if you're short on time.

This is my favorite temple at the Angkor Wat archaeological Park. You absolutely have to visit this place. This particular temple was built by a conquering king, who wanted to return the empire to its roots of Buddhism, as opposed to the Hindu king before him. This was the inspiration for the “many faces of Buddha” that can be found here at Bayon temple. A major structural restoration process has been going on during the coronavirus pandemic, seizing the opportunity with a lack of tourism to work hard to bring back some life to the delicate, yet very ornate and detailed temple complex. The last time I visited the park, I needed special permission to view the upper terrace of the temple as it was closed for construction purposes.

Absolutely stunning! I am short of weds to explain this historic marvel. Very well kept. Please be respectful to the culture. I noticed so many countries that are part of restoration like india, Japan and Germany. It’s a must visit place and once in a life time experience

This temple is one of my favorite places that I have been. Something about the faces bring out a strong mystical reaction in me.

Another fantastic temple. Not as much walking as other temples but do beware or the steep and uneven stairs and grounds. It is easier to buy tickets prior to going but you can just buy tickets at the entrance. 09/2023

Incredible temple surrounded by a great expanse of greenery and other, smaller temples. Also lots of monkeys to see running around! A definite must see on your temple tour.

My favourite temple with iconic stone Buddha faces, embodies a mystical allure that resonates through the ages. Exploring the labyrinthine corridors and ascending the steep stairs to be greeted by the gazing faces of Bayon is an experience that immerses visitors in a captivating blend of history, artistry, and spiritual significance.

A very cool temple. There was a lot of monkeys though and one tried to steal my husband's water bottle. But it was a very beautiful place.

What a wonderful temple ancient people had ever built there. No matter how many times you have been there you will always feel amazed by the views the temple provides you.

Historical beauty in the giant circle of temple. Recommend knowing the story behind this temple as you travel, it'll feel really special understanding ilits popularity and purpose. Full of sculptures and pictures on the wall to decipher and understand. It's a shame the top part was under construction or was access blocked as that's usually the best part for Bayon temple, seeing the faces up close.

Bayon temple is amazing.. The place is very clean.. I went here by touring group.. And my tour guide was very good explain the history of the temple..It is good to know the story of the temple rather than just walk around..

It's a beautiful temple maze. Don't get separated from your group though. Then it becomes a scary version of temple run, dodging angry monkeys and trying to find your friends 😂. Incredible experience though and definitely worth spending some time at

Part of the Angkor Wat complex the Bayon temple is exceptionally beautiful. I had done a bit of research prior to my visit and so I had an idea of what to expect. I have to admit though, the pictures I had seen did not convey the actual beauty of the temple. This is really a beautiful temple, I can personally assure you, you will not be disappointed.

Bayon Temple, located in the Angkor Archaeological Park in Cambodia, is a remarkable historical site that warrants a balanced review. Positives: 1. Architectural Marvel: Bayon Temple is renowned for its unique and intricate architecture. The temple's 54 towers are adorned with 216 smiling stone faces, creating a sense of awe and wonder among visitors. 2. Historical Significance: As part of the Angkor complex, Bayon Temple is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and holds great historical and cultural importance. It provides valuable insights into the Khmer civilization that thrived in the region. 3. Spiritual Atmosphere: Many visitors find a sense of tranquility and spirituality within the temple's confines. The serene atmosphere, coupled with the sound of birds and rustling leaves, adds to the overall experience. Negatives: 1. Crowds: Bayon Temple is a popular tourist destination, and it can get extremely crowded, especially during peak seasons. This can detract from the sense of serenity and make it challenging to fully appreciate the site. 2. Preservation Challenges: Over the years, Bayon Temple has faced issues related to conservation and restoration. The ongoing battle against nature and erosion has resulted in some parts of the temple being inaccessible or in disrepair. 3. Accessibility: For some visitors, the uneven terrain and steep stairs at Bayon Temple may pose challenges, making it less accessible to those with mobility issues. In conclusion, Bayon Temple is a mesmerizing historical site with its own set of positives and negatives. It's a must-visit for history enthusiasts and those interested in ancient architecture. However, the crowds and preservation challenges may slightly diminish the overall experience for some visitors.

Amazing temple, probably the most enigmatic of the entirety of Angkor Thom. Sadly the upper terrace is closed for restoration until 2025.

Beautiful temple grounds with the truly unique smiling Buddha faces throughout. Not easy to walk around though; lots of uneven stone paths and dark places. I literally sprained my ankle walking down some uneven stairs. So just a heads up.

Wow! I really loved visiting this temple! It was truly stunning and huge ! You are able to walk around most of the temple but the higher levels are not accessible. The carvings on the walls were so well preserved and fascinating to look at. Bayon Temple also seems to be home to a family of monkeys and they roam around the temple grounds with you! Great visit and it was quiet compared to Angkor Wat.

Bayon temple was our favourite temple of the day. It was relatively quiet when we got there and it had the feeling that you were really exploring the temple. There are loads of incredible carvings in the walls the smiling Buddhas are so unique. Definitely don’t miss this temple if you’re visiting Angkor Wat. It’s included in the cost of the Angkor Wat ticket.

Pictures just could never do this temple justice. There is something about the depth of the towers that you can't capture on a camera. I recommend going with a guide to hear some interesting facts and stories about the temple. Otherwise some details would be lost on the casual viewer.

Bayon Temple is absolutely beautiful! I love the carvings and the stories they tell. You can spend hours just looking at the different carvings. The faces are amazing. I'd recommend hiring a tour guide. Bayon Temple is an absolute must see in Siem Reap! I'd definitely recommend!

We went to see Angkor Wat and had our driver take us around to a few of the surrounding temples. I keep saying this but pictures just cannot do these places justice. It is an experience being here and being able to see each stone carving in person. Wear comfortable shoes you'll be climbing up stone stairways and walking across dirt and stones. If you are going to come all the way to see Angkor Wat, ask your driver to come here too and the other temples. It's well worth the time.

Lovely temple in the middle of a long abandoned city. It is slowly being restored. It is a great example of the spires showing the four smiling faces of Buddha, and murals showing early Khmer history.

Unique ancient temple with the face of a king carved into its several towers. Intricate wall and mural carvings similar to Angkor Wat.

Very happy I visited this temple, less crowded and fun to look around and explore. You can hear the sound of birds outside and bats from the inside. And you can even see some monkeys outside when entering.

This place is a must see Wow! I really loved visiting this temple! It was truly stunning and huge so much to see and amazing colourful architecture ! You are able to walk around most of the temple but the higher levels are not accessible this is so magical. The carvings on the walls were so well preserved and fascinating to look at you need a 3 day pass to see all of the temples. Bayon Temple also seems to be home to a family of monkeys and they roam around the temple grounds with you! Great visit and it was quiet compared to Angkor Wat get ready for a magical day out

There are monkeys walking around, bats flying in the temple, everything is so beautiful! You need to take all the time you have to observe the ruins, every sculpture, every drawing sculpted on the wall. It may be hot during the day, but the sweat is worth it !

This is one of the three large temples. Angkor Wat, Bayon and Ta Prohm. This one has nice wall carvings and smiling face sculptures. Unfortunately it is not well protected.

Lovely temple in the Angkor complex with a rich history. If you book a tour guide this will probably be included in the main stops, otherwise go and see it for yourself. It may be a bit crowded given most tours stop here but try and go early in the day and you might be luckier. It’s also got some really intricate and interesting scenes on a wall outside the main temple that is worth taking some time to explore and read about for further context. It was undergoing some maintenance works when we visited in April 2024, but nothing that detracted from the overall experience.

The iconic temple of Angkor civilization and one of the main attractions when visiting Siam Reap. The Bayon Temple is the heart of Angkor Thom (citadel). It’s breathtaking and gorgeous, every detail is properly carved on stones

One of the most majestic temples. Beautifully carved. 4 faces buddha everywhere, so beautiful. One which is considered flat, no need to hike to explore the temple. Narrow passages after you enter the temple, somehow feels like a labyrinth. But dont worry you see guards everywhere and you wont get lost inside. Must see object!!

So to see the face of the king carved everywhere facing all those who view thus temple is impressive Especially since you don't necessarily see the faces at first glance Then you start to notice them everywhere and it is fun to find them once you know where to look

The amount of incredible detail carvings is unimaginable, what is sad is how much more details we will lose each decade as they are exposed to the nature and tough environment. After spending many hot hours at Angkor Wat we were thirsty, hot and tired by the time we got to this smaller temple. My tour guide was so enthusiastic about this temple and the large face carvings, the history of them and who they were, but all I saw were the large faces and hear and remember a faction of the informations that he had shared with me, stupid me🤦🏻‍♂️ We shouldn’t have come in March the beginning of their hot season, should have come in slightly cooler December so we would have pay better attention.

This was the first temple on our Small Tour offered by our hotel. Like most of the temples,the detailing ,carvings and intricacies of workmanship is just phenomenal. To portray life at the time, their values, and creating these temples that still stand, is remarkable. Granted, after almost a thousand years, restoration is needed, and it’s good to see various countries contributing to this. We saw monks visiting in their orange robes which was a privilege. Recommend buying tickets online if starting early, however, you can purchase on the day. Just present ticket when entering temple area. Keeping it on your mobile is fine. Be prepared for steep stairs. It’s hot, so bring hat, glasses, water and good walking shoes. Women cover shoulders.

I visited here on June 30 2023. Ta Prohm temple stands humbly in the deep jungle and is swallowed up by massive Banyan trees. I was exploring this thousand years old relic, timeless mystery.

From all temples around this one is the nicest. Just because it's not renovated and basically a big pile of stones. Personally I love the raw nature and the sense of ruins you'll find here. You can easily spent an hour or 2 here.vert less tourist compared to other temples. It also has. Lot of "inside" so you're covered against the sun.

Ta Prohm , was for me, the most impressive site in the area. The jungle has grown into, over and around the ancient ruins. It is truly amazing and unique. This also happens to be a site location for one of the Tomb Raider movies. This location is certainly worth the time and effort to visit.

It was a wonderful experience visiting this beautiful temple. Then I was told that the movie Tomb Raider was shot here. As part of the World Heritage Sites, it was very satisfying to see that countries around the world are helping restore and preserve this beautiful temple.

A really unique temple to visit! It was really fascinating to see how the trees had managed to grow despite the temples presence. It was the first temple we visited on our temple run and by far one of my favourites. The grounds the temple is sat on are truly beautiful and surrounded by nature, and there are musicians playing Cambodian music as you walk around which really adds to the surreal atmosphere. Fantastic temple!

Another unique temple within the Angkor complex. Here you’ll find various structures with trees and other plants that have grown into and around these structures. It is also know as the filming site for Tomb Raider The way through this temple is not as straight forward, so enjoy the time getting lost and meandering through the halls of this temple and observing how the earth has reclaimed this masterpiece If you look closely, you might even seen the “Dinosaur of Ta Prohm”

This smaller temple is very popular with tourists for two reasons, it was used in the Lara Croft: Tomb Raider movie and is home to trees that entwine the ancient building creating a maze of carved stone and root systems that some find enticing. The temple is slowly being restored though there is a debate on whether to remove the trees or leave them as they are. Much of the temple is still in ruins however.

Astonishing temple. Honestly i liked this one the most because od the synergy with nature. It's full of huge trees that are all over the walls. Must see during your Angkor watt tour. I didn't go with a guide and explored the place on my own, still was very nice experience

Ta Prohm Temple in Siem Reap is a captivating destination that transports you to another era. The presence of ancient trees intertwining with the temple's structures creates a surreal ambiance, making you feel alive amidst the remnants of the past. The intricate carvings and weathered stone walls tell stories of the Khmer Empire, showcasing their remarkable craftsmanship. The interplay between nature and man-made elements is what sets Ta Prohm apart, as the sprawling roots breathe new life into the ruins. Exploring the temple's nooks and crannies, you'll feel a sense of adventure and curiosity, escaping the outside world. Arriving early allows you to fully absorb the atmosphere and appreciate the temple's beauty, while being mindful of the preservation efforts. Ta Prohm Temple is a must-visit, where ancient architecture and nature's touch come together in a mesmerizing display of history's grandeur.

For most of our party, this was the favorite temple. It feels jungly and overgrown in a good way, with ficus trees strangling and cracking the ancient walls. Much of this temple is in disrepair, which again adds to the feeling. There are nooks and hidden courtyards that made my boys feel like they were proper explorers. Much of this temple and the paths are shaded which was a welcome relief from the midday heat.

Another amazing sacred temple from the ancient Khmer kingdom! I and my wife spent two well spent hours admiring and going inside and out of these ancient ruins overgrown with also ancient tall banyan trees. Still beautiful and majestic.

Honestly the visuals of this place are amazing. Don't skip this place, seeing how the trees are both holding the place together but also pushing it to collapse are amazing. There are some crowds but be patient and you will get nice pictures.

Very calm place with beautiful trees! The trees feel magical. The temple is in ruins. It was Shiva temple. The sheer no of huge boulders lying around which were part of the temple... gives an idea of how huge it was.

Very beautiful temple. Despite Hollywood tomb raiders movie scene location’s being taken from here the temple is truly worthwhile visit. I would have spent half a day here specially being a cool surrounding with trees.

Absolutely mind-blowing temple. Worldwide famous from Tomb Raider. Lots of people. But absolutely MUST see. Words and pictures cannot describe the vibe of this place.

This is a really cool temple but not very wheelchair friendly. We are traveling and documenting accessibility. This temple is really cool, and there are a lot of things to see. The entrance can be a challenge so do to the exit - use the wooden bridge and steps to have it more easier for you. The path is quite a challenge, but it works :) You see many great carvings and it's really cool with all the trees and roots. Comes to show how powerful mother nature really is.

I enjoyed Ta Prohm Temple a lot more than Ankor Wat or other temples in the town. Just a surreal experience to witness the beautiful harmony of old structures (or ruins) and nature coexisting together. I would love to visit here again in the future.

This iconic temple complex was notably used in the movie Tomb Raider, but that is hardly the story of the temple in general. This was a major city center with a population in the surrounding area of close to 100,000 people at the height of its glory. The ancient ruins have been taken over by the giant trees and their root systems, and it is really a magnificent archaeological site to observe because it has been taken back by the elements, and I suppose that gives it a certain allure in its own unique way. I found myself wandering around this part of the park for hours on end, on any given occasion that I had visited. As with many of the temples, the grounds for one particular place is sprawling and very vast. Take your time to pay attention to the detail, because the ornate carvings and vibrant colors of the stones are a real sight to see. This is definitely one of my favorite temple complexes in the kingdom of Cambodia, and I highly recommend visiting this one in particular.

Ta Prohm: An evocative temple reclaimed by the jungle, where nature and architecture intertwine in poetic harmony. It's a hauntingly beautiful testament to impermanence and time's relentless march, with the temple's dilapidated stones embraced by giant root systems. A visit feels like stepping into a different world, a movie set—or more accurately, the movie sets have tried to replicate the magic of Ta Prohm. Yet, it's not just the aesthetic appeal but also the historical and archaeological significance that make this site truly mesmerizing. Note: its popularity means it can be crowded, but it remains a must-see in Angkor."

Ta Prohm Temple was a breathtaking fusion of nature and ancient architecture. The sprawling tree roots engulfing the ruins created an awe-inspiring, timeless spectacle. It's an unforgettable journey into an enchanting world where the past meets the present in the most captivating manner.

This is my favorite temple of all. It is much appreciative when you get a chance to see it with your own eyes. Located in the MIDDLE of the jungle but you would say it’s a real hidden gems. A MUST TO VISIT ONCE IN YOUR LIFE.

This might be my favorite temple of all. The state of it, with the trees and all the green around makes the atmosphere great. We arrived there at around 8:30 and there was just enough people that you were able to walk around at times without anybody in sight.

A beautiful site that mother nature is slowly taking back. It was less crowded compared to Ankor Wat. We enjoyed the not so busy aspect of this site. it's a bit more relaxing here compared to the more popular sites

Quite big temple, very busy as it was made popular by the film Tomb Raider. The temple was built with no mortar so after it was abandoned the trees took root in the loosened stones. It is part of UNESCO World Heritage List.

Among all the temples at Angkor, Ta Prohm is perhaps the most atmospheric and mysterious one, with the massive roots of banyan trees covering its structures. It was also a film location for Lara Croft: Tomb Raider. If you don’t have much time to explore Angkor Archaeological Park, make sure you put this temple on the top of your list.

I can so see Indiana Jones running through here, so authentic and full of history. The only things missing are the snakes, poison arrows, head hunters or any kinds of danger. Of course Hollywood misplaces history, locations and everything in between. Nevertheless this temple with all the giant trees growing out of giant stones and temples are so fascinating.

I went to see this temple after 24 years and it brought tears to my eyes realizing how much it had changed. I remembered it as a true jungle place and now it seems so open and the path to it from the street was swept clean. Apart from that, many more stones had toppled over and seemed to have been moved into specific locations; hopefully, as part of a restoration effort. The last two photos show pictures from an on-site display of a couple of areas that have been restored. It is still an amazing temple to visit

This temple in good condition for the age and compered to others but don't expect this to be complete. The carvings are remarkably sharp and tell stories of times past. Best to geta guide as it is quite easy to get lost although there are plenty of guides about.

The Ta Prohm temple is truly a mesmerizing sight to behold. Its ancient stone structures intertwined with towering trees create an enchanting atmosphere, making it feel like stepping into another world. Exploring its intricate corridors and hidden chambers feels like unraveling a mystery frozen in time. The intricate carvings and moss-covered walls add to the sense of wonder and evoke a deep appreciation for the craftsmanship of the past. Visiting Ta Prohm was a memorable journey into Cambodia's rich history and a must-see for any traveler exploring the Angkor Archaeological Park.

Undoubtedly the most atmospheric temple in Angkor Wat, totally sureal and should be top of the list for everyone visiting Camboodia. The crumbling towers and walls are being strangled by the roots and trees of the jungle; nature is claiming back what was originally hers. The atmosphere is serene and peaceful and you can feel the beauty of nature and the history of the past. A unique, magical, mystical and secretive appeal and an other-worldly experience not to be missed.

Cool temple! I stopped here because they filmed Tomb Raider's the Lost Arch. Amazing mix of architecture with nature!

Pretty cool place to just chill and hang out. Love music in some venues and so much food to choose from.

Great place to hang, walk around. But prepared to face a crowdy affair, as it gets full of locals & tourists after sunset. Many restaurants, bars, salons, and shopping centers are dotted along the street. One can try fish spa, or snakewines, etc unique experiences.

One of the iconic place in Siem Reap which boasts of its night life such as Pubs, Disco Bars as well as great restaurants and Shopping centers and spas and massage centers fit for both locals and foreigners. Almost all that you need for a one stop entertainment is here already that you don’t want to go anywhere

Great place to hang around, look and eat. There are many options available.

Super hectic street full of strange bar karaoke and nightclub only for tourists ... Prices expensive . Avoid the district. U can find nice bars and restaurants around at fair prices and good service. Beware of pickpockets

A must see street. Fun to be there so many choices in regards of food and drinks.

A riveting colourful plethora of music, lights and energy. Plentiful amount of food stalls, clubs, ice cream, smoothies, art shops, massage parlours and other substances offered at discretion, if you are so inclined. Parking for a small fee around the area with helpful attendants.

Great place to chill out after admiring the majestic Angkor War! The local ANGKOR beer is a Must Try!!!

Cool place to walk around and find a place to eat. This area is filled with lots of vendors and western restaurants.

Great nightlife option and all are doing special deals and buy 1 get 1 etc etc

Party. Dance. Drink. Be alone or together. This area is the vibe heart of Siem Reap. The nightlife of the culture city. The escape from temples or the start of desire for peace. What ever it does for you. You'll have your food here. And a drink. A song maybe.

Best place to spend the night in Siem Reap - Cambodia. A lot of restaurants, beer clubs, pubs, street food, etc. Good for those who want the noisy and energised atmosphere.

Great street with so so much very nice restourants, pubs, massage salon, shops with local art shops, souvenirs, coctail bars, pubs and very nice pizza.s shop also, all street has a great music from e everywhere….

Pub street reminds me of all these southeast party town serving the young tourists who wants to get drunk cheap. Lots of loud music, blinking lights, young girls in skimpy clothes asking passers by to come on in. We must we there during the low season as it was too crowded or loud. Seem much worse and louder in Thailand.

Bright lights, lots to drink and eat. Music was a bit loud in some places but overall cool spot.

The Kool Bar & swimming pool at The Sanctuary Residence really enjoy relaxing and beautiful best recommend for holiday in Siem reap

The copy of famous walking street of Thailand..a go to place for party lovers in Siem reap Cambodia, the entire street is full of cafés, bar, restaurant and clubs ..The street is lively and full of performers performing either live music or show of juggling or gymnastics..lots of street vendors selling colourful stuffs..overall a good experience and time well spent.

Nice walking area, get busy and loud ✨✨🥳🤪

Today I have time to review Angkor Thom.

On 30th June 2023, I enjoyed the time to walk around Angkor Thom quietly alone in the beautiful scenery.

So impressed!!!!

In July, very calm. No words to express the splendor of this site.

I have been to Angkor Wat and I can only say that it's one of the most amazing sites I've ever seen. It really is an iconic temple from this region of Cambodia and without a doubt the largest one. If you want to take in the beauty of temples at sunrise or sunset, visiting 6 temples during a tour I can recommend is the best option.

Words and pictures can't do justice to the mesmerizing effect this place has on you. A place revered by people for centuries, a place to meet the divine, a place people kept alive, a place that shows you history, and a place that talks to you personally. I visited here thrice, once at a cool morning, once at scenic late evening, and once during a hot afternoon and loved it through and through. Will visit again!

It is a magnificent temple complex located in Cambodia and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Dating back to the 12th century, Angkor Wat is one of the largest religious monuments in the world and is known for its intricate carvings and beautiful architecture. It is definitely a must-visit destination for anyone interested in history or architecture. If you plan on visiting Angkor Wat, we recommend bringing comfortable walking shoes, sunscreen, and plenty of water, as the complex is quite large and can be quite hot during the day.

Marvelous. The greatest temple complex of all time. After visiting so many temples in India, the grandeur here is not comparable at all. This temple, not in Wonders of the World, really? 1. Take a guide if you don't know about Hinduism/culture. Guide can show you the important items to visit in short span of time, also a bit of twisted history. 2. The temple was built for Vishnu, Shiva and other Hindu gods. Now mostly broken. Vishnu converted to Buddha. Lakshmi and other gods got beheaded. 3. Once certainly need 6 hours to ensure visit of all the structures (if you are on a 3 day pass). 3 hours is reasonable (if you are on one day pass, there are many temples around). 4. The inner walls (two each side, eight in total) with bas reliefs depicting Hindu concepts. Ensure to visit all, don't regret later. 5. The central sanctorum is in the third level, steep climbing. Old Vishnu/Shiva references have got cemented. Still you can have a good view of the complex from the top. Visited during August, not much crowd.

This place has such an amazing vibe. It is a pleasure to be here and experience the rich history of Love between Hinduism & Buddhism. You must plan to visit here one day in advance. You have to personally visit the ticket centre where they will take your pictures and print on ticket as well. I took one day pass but you can also take 3 or 7 day pass. There are 11 temples to visit only in inner circle that may take 2 - 3 days. I visited only main temple and other temple where TOMB RIDER was shoot. Beautiful place. Must visit

The day these photos were taken was characterized by overcast and gloomy weather. Despite the day's dullness, the black and white filter applied to the images adds an authentic touch that perfectly captures the moment's mood. The monochrome effect creates a timeless feel and highlights the intricate details of the images, such as the textures, patterns, and shadows. I hope you enjoy the photos and appreciate the artistic expression conveyed through them 🌹

This is one of the most beautiful places on earth, the eighth wonder of the world, such a magical experience! It’s a phenomenon that they can preserve heaven on earth for 2000 years. This is where the vortex is keeping this place, pristine and allowing us all to enjoy. It is a miracle. Thousand years later it still here be sure and visit

Went for the sunrise tour and was not disappointed. It's an incredible structure that took 30 years to build, and the stones were transported from a Quarry 70km away by bamboo boat and elephant. The views as the sun rises are amazing

10/10 recommend. Get a 3 day pass. We had a small group on mopeds and went from sun up to sun down. Spent 13 hrs in the park and it still wasn’t enough. I’d recommend 3x 6 hour days to cut it up and really appreciate the temples. Doing them all day long got exhausting. I’d also recommend doing them on your own on mopeds if you’re more of a go at your own pace type of person. Was fairly inexpensive as you can find mopeds all around town. *important note: Must buy tickets in advance. All roads that lead to temples will have a little booth you have to stop at to present your ticket. They occasionally will ask you in the parks as well.

We visited Angkor Wat on Sat 30 Mar 2024. It was an amazing place. The way of construction, the layout, the stone sculptures were fascinating. It was sad to see the ruins but imagine how magnificent it would have been in its heyday in the 12th century. The downside was the heat and the humidity. But, it was well worth the visit!

Angkor Wat at the early morning (Sunrise) was amazing. Angkor Wat Temple is the largest religious in the world by land area of South East Asia. As the best-preserved temple at the site, Angkor Wat is the only one to have remained a significant religious centre since its foundation. The temple is at the top of the high classical style of Khmer architecture. Highly recommended to visit Angkor Wat. At Lest Once in life.

Truly the experience of a lifetime! We took a tour to see the sunrise over the temple and it was truly an amazing site. Almost the entire temple complex is open to be explored. You can visit the first, second, and the top levels of the temple. It was originally built as a Hindu Temple and was later converted into a Buddhist temple. Tons of history at the site. Beautiful carvings in the walls.

Angkor Wat was breath taking, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity you do not want to pass up. Be sure to arrive early for the sunrise, I recommend finding a nice hill to watch the sunrise and don’t bother taking a photos like me because there are better ones online. Just sit back and enjoy the sunrise. The temple itself is extremely detailed I spend hours roaming around absorbing all the ancient architecture. Don’t rush it, take your time and soak it all in. Also I recommend reading about the history, it’s quite fascinating and will give great inside into what your actually seeing.

It is so majestic. I have visited many times and I never get tired of it. The reliefs are so interesting and active. We went at opening and we were the only people there for about an hour. All the sun rise watchers left as we arrived around 7.

Magnificent temple complex, slowly being restored. Spent 5 hours touring the grounds. The temple is a mix of early Hindu and Buddhist artwork, and climbing the central structure offers great views of the temple grounds and jungle.

The greatest wonder in Cambodia. I love the ancient, peaceful beauty of this place and the green of nature inside the large temple. Many visitors here so don’t worry about being lost. Wearing short skirt is not allowed to go inside the temple (short pants and long skirt is allowed), if you wear short skirt, you need to buy sarong at the tourist area’s shop. By the way, be careful with monkeys inside the temple!

It is astounding and an impressive temple. Don't get me wrong...it is really really impressive. I was staying there for more than 2 hours and didn't want to leave. So why only four and not five stars. The outside is as I described impressive the inside not so. Yes you can walk through most of it see some statues and reliefs but I was flashed from the outside not the inside. We could walk up toe the third level and again the view of the outside amazing. It is a total must do of things to see in life 👍

Angkor Wat is truly breathtaking. We only stayed for 2 hours with the tour guide but wish we stayed longer! So much to see and really need a 3 day tour to see it all. The temples and architecture is out of this world. Can't much more than what has already been said in other reviews. Definitely should be on the top of your list of places to visit while I'm Cambodia.

Angkor Wat 🛕 is a breathtaking masterpiece that transcends the boundaries of time and culture. Nestled in the heart of 🇰🇭 Cambodia , this ancient temple complex is a testament to the ingenuity and architectural prowess of the Khmer civilization. The sheer scale of Angkor Wat is awe-inspiring, with its towering spires, intricate bas-reliefs, and expansive courtyards. Stepping into Angkor Wat feels like entering a living history book, where each stone tells a story of a bygone era. The intricate carvings on the temple walls depict scenes from Hindu epics and Khmer daily life, providing a vivid glimpse into the rich tapestry of Cambodian heritage. The sunrise and sunset views over the iconic lotus pond create a surreal atmosphere, casting a golden hue upon the ancient stones and transforming the temple into a mesmerizing spectacle. The preservation efforts undertaken by Cambodia and UNESCO are commendable, allowing visitors to marvel at the grandeur of Angkor Wat while respecting its historical significance. Exploring the temple's labyrinthine corridors and ascending to its uppermost levels provide a unique perspective, rewarding adventurers with panoramic views of the surrounding jungle and distant temple spires. Angkor Wat is not merely a static monument; it's a living testament to the resilience of Cambodia's cultural identity. Visiting this UNESCO World Heritage site is a profound journey through time, offering a deep appreciation for the craftsmanship, spirituality, and architectural brilliance that define Angkor Wat as one of humanity's greatest cultural treasures. Notes - Take enough time if you are visiting its huge and interesting Take Guide for all information carry water bottle wear comfortable clothes and foot wear

If it's in your bucket list, do it. Visiting this place is like no other. Only 90 of the 300 temples are in good condition. The main heritage site which is protected by UNESCO is a lot of walk. Contrary to what many visitors are told, the sunset can't be viewed from the site as it closes at 5 pm. The option is to climb on the hill near the entrance, the sunrise is a more realistic option. Worth to pay a photographer to take your photos and the local guides are very knowledgeable. The tickets can be bought online.

One the world's most amazing Khmer temple complexes. Large, fascinating, highly pleasant. Was constructed around 1100ad, took some 49 years I believe. Must see.

A breathtaking temple complex, beautiful from both the western and eastern entrances although the eastern with the palm trees and water was especially gorgeous. We went around 4pm on a weekday and it wasn’t too crowded. We hired a tour guide, who was helpful for showing us around and telling us all the detailed stories of the religion and history, although it also would be a nice place to explore at your own pace and feel uninhibited taking pictures.

I'm not a morning person but decided to do the sunrise tour of this temple complex and can say that getting up at 4am was totally worth it. The place is magical and the changing colors and mirror effect in the lake are amazing. Make sure to pack lots of water. It's hot and humid (another reason why going super early in the morning to this temple complex is a good idea).

Beautiful temple. Seeing it for sunrise is very beautiful and a good way to walk around before it gets too hot. I would recommend having a tour guide walk you through to tell you about the history and architecture! The stairs to get to the top are very steep but you can see great views from up there.

I went to see the sunrise and while it was slightly cloudy and it was not as amazing as expected, the whole experience was great. Arriving at night and navigating it in the darkness was really nice and it made the way back really especial. Really recommend going to the end of the temple and going back along the edge of the temple instead of through it. I actually found the temple less crowded that I expected.

Angkor Wat in Krong Siem Reap, Cambodia is a truly wondrous place, and a must-visit for anyone traveling to the region. It is one of the largest religious monuments in the world, and its architecture is simply breathtaking. I recently had the opportunity to visit Angkor Wat, and I was absolutely overwhelmed by its beauty and grandeur. I arrived at the temple complex early in the morning, before sunrise, and the crowds were already starting to gather. But even with so many people around, the atmosphere was still peaceful and serene. As the sun began to rise, the temple was bathed in a golden glow, and it was truly a sight to behold. I spent the entire day exploring Angkor Wat, and I still didn't feel like I had seen everything. The temple complex is vast, and there is so much to see and do. If you are planning a visit to Angkor Wat, I highly recommend that you take your time and explore at your own pace. There is no need to rush. Just relax and soak up the atmosphere of this truly magical place.

Wear comfortable shoes, lots of bug spray and plan to spend most of your day exploring! Angkor Wat, is a breath taking temple and hold’s so much importance to the Cambodian people that it should definitely be added to your must see places when visiting Siem Reap! I would recommend going for the sunrise viewing, but manage your expectations! There will be lots of other people there too and so finding a good photo spot might be a little tricky. If you would like a photo with a reflection of the temple, get to the lake on the right side of the temple as early as possible, otherwise a good spot is at one of the libraries just in front of the temple. After the temple doors open you can explore the grounds at your leisure, this was my favourite part. Warning: to get to the highest tower the stairs are very steep and the platform rocks a little, please take your time and be safe.

"Visiting Angkor Wat was an awe-inspiring experience! The grandeur of the temple complex, surrounded by lush greenery, left me speechless. Exploring the intricate carvings and towering structures felt like stepping back in time. Despite the crowds, the serene atmosphere within the temple grounds allowed me to appreciate the beauty and history of this UNESCO World Heritage site. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a glimpse into Cambodia's rich cultural heritage."

Angkor Wat stands as a testament to the grandeur of ancient Khmer architecture, captivating visitors with its intricate design and historical significance. This UNESCO World Heritage site, nestled in the heart of Cambodia, is a sprawling temple complex that served as the epicenter of the Khmer Empire. As you approach, the sheer scale of Angkor Wat leaves a profound impression. The central towers rise majestically, adorned with mesmerizing bas-reliefs depicting Hindu epics and celestial narratives. The precision of the carvings and the symbolism embedded in every detail showcase the architectural brilliance of the Khmer civilization. Exploring Angkor Wat is a journey through time, with its corridors echoing the whispers of a bygone era. The reflective pools surrounding the temple create stunning mirroring effects during sunrise and sunset, adding an ethereal quality to the experience. While the crowds can be overwhelming, especially during peak hours, the sheer magnificence of Angkor Wat transcends the tourist hustle. The symbiotic blend of spirituality and architectural prowess makes it a pilgrimage for history enthusiasts and a photographer's paradise. In conclusion, Angkor Wat is a living masterpiece that transports visitors to the zenith of Khmer civilization. Its grandiosity and cultural significance make it a must-visit destination, leaving an indelible mark on those fortunate enough to witness its timeless allure.

Discover the breathtaking beauty of Angkor Wat Temple, a world heritage site known for its stunning carvings and intricate architecture. Everyone in the world should visit this amazing temple at least once in life. It has beautiful views both Sunrise and Sunset. I always feel fresh when I arrived this temple 🥰

This must be a wonder of human civilization, the greatest monument of Hinduism and surreal sanctuary. The structure has zero flaw and every single detail is done properly, and the size of Angkor Wat is massive. Hard to believe that people back then could erect such complex without modern technology. You can’t miss this temple when traveling to Cambodia

Angkor Wat, a testament to architectural brilliance, is a mesmerizing marvel nestled in Cambodia. This UNESCO World Heritage site, deeply rooted in Hindu and Buddhist history, reflects the rich cultural heritage of India. Its intricate carvings and captivating aura instill a sense of pride in every Hinduthva heart. A must-visit for those seeking spiritual enlightenment and historical grandeur.

Bucket list item - Check. What a wonderful place to visit and just be amazed by the wonder of history. Take your time and visit all the spots on maybe 2 or 3 days. Tried to see everything in one day and was wiped out by 3pm. Still had a great day. Totally worth it.

The best place to see sunrise at the Angkor Wat temple. I do recommend you to purchase ticket online by website: Angkor Enterprise (only one website). It’s convenient for you guys when you have online ticket so u no need to go to the Angkor Park Pass Ticket Counter. I do strongly suggest you take a local guide as in Angkor wat temple, there are a lot of historical, religious and cultural. You will probably spend at least 3 hour there. Amazing temple !!!

The best way for solo travelers is to rent a moped for the day and visit all the temples at your own leisure. On the way you may get stopped to check if you have a ticket. Also they check tickets at the entrances of the temples. Park your moped and walk to the temples it's the easiest and quickest way if you're short on time.

Okay so it's not the Getty but it's an amazing collection, it's well presented, the audio headsets are clean, work well and the content is excellent. We had a flight to get to so whizzed through in two hours, 3-4 are recommended. A visit here also blends perfectly with those that have toured the temples (basically everyone that visits Siem Reap).

Anyone who has any interest in Angkor wat should first visit this museum. The information and knowledge that is gained in this experience is invaluable when visiting the Temples throughout Angkor Wat. You can learn about the fundamentals behind the builds, the religious influences during each build as well as learn about the features in each structure.

This is a very nice museum to go and take some time out from the heat and city life. It is so big and spacious and comfortable. There are benches all along the way and a number of places to sit comfortably watching videos. The content is so impressive. You get a lesson of the 20 centuries of Khmer history and the many achievements. This was very much worth the time.

I think visiting the Angkor National Museum before visiting any of the temples is a good idea. This way you have the history behind the temples, how and why it was built. See close up details of the sculptures, the carving. Just as important, you get to see and enjoy the history and culture in the comfort of air conditioning instead of outside in 100 degrees heat. Paying the extra $5 for the headset was well worth it for us, we get to hear all the details. They come in multiple languages.

Totally excellent museum with a lot of genuine artefacts, completed by comprehensive information panels. These will be more than adequate for an introductory awareness of the site of Angkor Wat and Angkor Thom. However, the audio guide will do so much more to broaden your appreciation of these religious sites, and these are available in multiple languages. Personally there were so many exhibits, I didn’t have time to visit all the galleries of this beautiful museum before closing time. I’ll certainly be back to this museum before I visit the religious sites later in the year, because two hours here is simply not enough time.

I recommend you go before any guided tour so that you can soak up as much history as you can in one sitting in a comfortable air-conditioned sitting. The archeological artifacts are well-preserved, and v well presented. You should take at least 2hrs to be able to fully appreciate everything on display. I finished around 1745 and was treated to a mild red sunset hue over the top of the building as I edited.

Excellent museum where one gets to see full parts of architecture or some statues, in good condition. Normally, real archeo sites may not have such idols or were destroyed. The whole museum is divided nicely in various categories. Kings, places, temples, etc. Worth a visit, to get a full visual of the great grand history of Cambodia.

Worth visiting to while away a couple of hours or prior to visiting the various temples and complexes around Siem Reap. I felt like the $12 price tag for a single entry was quite steep when considering the limited exhibitions and displays presented to visitors.

It is definitely a spot to go visit when you come to Siem Reap especially before you go to Angkor Wat! Museum had so many cool artifacts and info about the history of Cambodia we are so glad we went! Highly recommend when here!

Interesting complement to touring the actual temple complexes themselves as it fills in the history and background in far more detail than can be accomplished within the archaeological sites. There's numerous well written explanations and a good-value audio tour guiding the visitor through the various rooms dedicated to discoveries, religious development and both pre and post Angkor periods. Well worth the $12 entrance fee.

It's a nice museum, I suppose you can visit this place before visiting Angkor Wat if you wish to learn about Cambodia's history and the architectural style. It kinda gets repetitive though since a lot of the exhibitions are statues. I guess the point of interest that caught my attention during my visit was the model of Angkor Wat, it was fascinating!

This museum is a must-see before going to the temples in Angkor. The collection is beautiful, and there are many interesting things to learn before visiting the temples. I highly recommend paying extra for the audio guide. It's very informative and easy to understand, but there's a lot of information, so it's easy to get a little lost. I totally recommend visiting this museum!

If it's your 1st time in Seam Reap, then this is a must visit. You will get to know the history a great knowledge to have especially if you have intention of visiting the temples. If you want to learn more and not just rely on the videos and poster you could rent an audio guide for $5. You will need to allocate at least 3 hours to enjoy the visit.

Definitely recommending the audio guide. It very much sums up the signs (they have the same info). There were 8 small-medium sections depicting different parts of Cambodian history and culture. Beware of SCAM! If your driver tells you to go get a ticket somewhere else because there’s a long line there, do know that you don’t have to go. There was no long line at all when I went (took about 2 minutes to get the ticket)

When I had my temple tour in Angkor Wat, our tour guide, Mr. Sary (he's a very amazing and knowledgeable guide 👍🏼 thumbs up to him), suggested to visit the Angkor National Museum if we still have time. Though going to the temple ruins itself is already rewarding.. and if you listen carefully to the guide, you will really learn a lot；there's just this different vibe when you also visit the Angkor National Museum. Some suggested to go here before the temple tours (probably to not pre-empt some information) but I visited after my temple tours and that didn't matter. There was still this different vibe of seeing up-close the relics that once hold great importance to the temples of Angkor and its people. Some of these relics were stolen and was just recovered. These relics and currently protected and preserved inside the museum to avoid further damages (these were made 800-1000 years ago) and to let us people living at the modern times see history. Ticket is not so expensive 12USD this 2023. There's also an audio guide which you could rent for an additional 5USD. Some audio-visual presentations are also available inside some galleries (giving some insightful information) and labels are also available to read (in English and Khmer language). Overall, it can take you roughly an hour (the least) to two hours to visit all the galleries. Pictures are not allowed inside the galleries and please DO NOT TAKE YOUR SHOES OFF each time you go from one gallery to another - unless it's your thing. There's a souvenir shop and a cafe inside the museum just in case you'd like to chill or rest before moving to the next gallery or after you finished your museum tour. Though it is not a must to visit, I highly recommend it because there's so much to learn (aside from what the guides will share) and very insightful. 😊

1. 12$ entry ticket. 2. The museum appears to be very big, except for the first gallery with 1000s of Buddha statues, rest of the galleries are sparse presentation of artifacts, more of writings and explanations. 3. My view: The entire museum is 60% of Hindu culture (Pre, Angkor Period). Lot of very clear explanations and writings about the cultural origin. Probably the museum itself dedicated for the Angkor culture. 4. Really missing about the Khmer cultural artifacts, not much to be seen. Very minimal display of Khmer language, scripts, no mention of its origins (or did I miss it?). 5. The souvenir shop inside got a good collection, but exorbitant. 6. Though little, the museum is well organized with multilingual audio descriptions in each gallery.

This should be your first stop before exploring Ankor Wat and all the other achelogical sites in Siem Reap. You will have a better understanding of the religion, the culture, and why the sites were created. The audio guide is a must, and the gift shop had great souvenirs. The tickets are well worth the price. It was not crowded during our visit. The creativity of humans is in full display.

The museum was worth visiting. I can recommend seeing Angkor Wat the day before so you can inform yourself properly after having it seen already. Thus, the museum lacks of modern exhibition practices as interactive or participative elements. I would also wish to know more about the role Angkor has for the Khmer community today.

It is a rather interesting place to visit for 2-3 hours when your legs need some rest from the Angkor temples. The museum is modern and German-style, it gives a general idea of what we know about the Khmer empire and the three periods of Khmer history. It features the artifacts from the Angkor temples, and many of them have a back story of the same type - looted by some European black digger, popped up in the market, were proven to belong to Angkor, were returned. However, there are hundreds of artifacts in the place where there should be thousands, and that is incredibly sad, even though the exhibition does not say it. I would recommend spending two days in the temples, then taking a break day for this museum in the morning and Tonse Sap sunset tour, and then spending one more day in Angkor temples to reflect on that.

This Museum offers a comprehensive immersion into the rich history and culture of the Khmer Empire. As a prelude to exploring the Angkor temples, this museum serves as an invaluable introduction and educational experience. Stepping inside, there’s an extensive collection of artifacts, sculptures, and historical remnants meticulously curated to showcase the grandeur and legacy of the ancient Khmer civilization. The detailed presentations and informative displays provide a profound understanding of Angkor's significance. It is definitely worth the visit and even more valuable if you can visit here before exploring the Angkor temples.

Entry fee is 16$ for adults and 6$ for kids. Cannot carry food, water or any backpack inside the museum. Though your belongings can be deposited for free before the ticket counter. Worth the money, it's big and informative with artifacts, sculptures, paintings, audio visual sections with seating area to rest. A - G zones to explore Toilets are a bit rundown and need renovation. Cafe is small with basic selections Souvenir shops are pricey Visiting early opening hours is a plus!!

Such a good museum and introduction to Angkor. I would highly recommend doing this before actually visiting the temple. This will allow you to much better understand what they were all about.

Yes as per other reviews agree that this museum should be done first before doing any of the temples. If you truly want to learn about what you are to visit over just taking pictures and posting online as photo ops, really recommend spending at least two hours going through the museum. Yes there are a lot of statutes but there are a lot of videos and models and important write Ups that actually will explain see when you go to visit the temples. We were short and had to rush did it in 75 min. But 3 hours would be ideal and worth it

Stepping inside, there’s an extensive collection of artifacts, sculptures, and historical remnants meticulously curated to showcase the grandeur and legacy of the ancient Khmer civilization. It is worth the visit and even more valuable if you can visit here before exploring the Angkor temples.

It's an excellent museum! A must see for all those visitors who want to know the background of Angkor wat and all other temples which are there like Bantey Shrey, Ta Prohm, etc. the museum has been divided into 8 galleries. Each gallery has physical and video displays which explain the background of the exhibits.

Fascinating to be here! You will learn a lot about how Cambodians struggled in leaving that era. To survive and live with landmines that where no to be found. The risk that they have to take. Please contribute more so that they could do more for helping people. You need to find more, to know more about this place. Feel it and Support.

A must visit place when in Cambodia. We were lucky enough to have a guided tour by Akira himself (the curator) and learnt about his history and the fantastic work undertaken by Akira and his team. It was a moving tale and one I will be supporting in the future.

Very glad we combined a visit to the museum with nearby temples. Well worth the stop. The story of Aki Ra is one that should be heard. It demonstrates the tragedy of war decades after the fighting has actually stopped. Roughly an hour or less is about all you need to see the displays and read the stories. Be sure to use their QR codes to listen to audio in each room.

Well worth a visit. A small museum, but so important in understanding the recent history of Cambodia. The museum began from a personal effort to remove land mines. It’s also a very courageous story about being born during times of civil war, being a child solider, fighting, defecting, and finally using ones soldiering skills to demine Cambodia. It’s a depressing, yet hopeful story.

It’s a bit far from the city. Our tourist guide was a bit reluctant to bring us there but we insisted because of the good reviews. And I’m glad that we insisted. As a human, it’s good to see, hear and read about Cambodian landmines for us to become more human. You can meet the land mine victims yourselves there. And, plus point for the very clean toilets ✨ Entrance ticket 5usd / person.

Very nice to explore about war and landmine in Cambodia. If you want to see there please contact me +85598344747

Beautiful landmine museum with many landmines, tank mines and so on. Museum is full of information and divided in sections to better explaining part of the Cambodia's history. I was lucky enough to have the owner speaking to us and talking about his life as a soldier and now working to demining the country. Please make yourself a present and go to visit it 😊

This is the most depressing must see museum I have ever been to. The exhibits carefully detail the widespread use of landmines in Cambodia and other areas of SE Asia. It chronicles the widespread devastation during the USA led war in SE Asia and the terrible killing and life altering effects of the mines to this day. The sobering story is timely today and we are reminded of the decades of horrible impact that war has on innocent children and families. Technology exists to remove miles of mines but resources are not yet allocated.

A great insight into the life and work of Aki Ra, one of the founders of the museum and the lasting devastation the use of landmines has caused, and still is, to Cambodian families. Sure, the artifacts on display are a collection of the types of ordnance used by the Khmer Rouge on their own countrymen and the size and types of ordnance dropped by the US during the 1960's and 70's. The real purpose of visiting is to be touched by the real stories of all those innocents killed and mamed during the conflicts but also those killed and mamed since and continue to be to this day. Aki Ra and his team from the museum not only locate, disarm, and detonate such devices (in excess of 50,000 to-date) but also take in and support young victims. Please visit if you are in the area and support them with your admission fee $5, donations and purchases. Every little helps.

The Cambodia Landmine Museum in Siem Reap is a must-visit for its extensive collection of landmines and other explosive remnants of war, as well as providing helpful context information. It's a sobering but essential experience that offers a unique perspective on the ongoing impact of war in Cambodia.

Muy instructivo y parte de los beneficios de la entrada está destinada a la limpieza de los campos afectados por las minas anti personas. Sin duda un visita obligada para conocer de primera mano el gran problema de las minas. (Translated by Google) Very instructive and part of the benefits of the entrance is destined to the cleaning of the fields affected by anti-personnel mines. Undoubtedly a must to see first-hand the great problem of mines.

This was a great place to learn about the millions of landmines left in Cambodia after the wars of the 60-80's. It was also a good place to learn about help being given to clear land of mines and supporting the people that have been injured by these leftover, unmarked threats to life and limbs.

There are 5 room size of artifacts on shows. This is private museum supported by govt. Entrance fee is USD5 per person, or 20,000 Riel.

Amazing experience. So worth coming to. It is small and doesn't take much time to go through the exhibits. Usually they have tours that explain how they locate and remove landmines. The employees are all people who have survived landmine explosions. Their stories are very powerful! Definitely worth coming.

Please come here!! The museum is incredible, you see weapons, land mines and other explosives that haven’t been polished or shined, it’s a very real experience!!!! The proceeds of your ticket go to helping mine removal and schools in the area!!

This was well worth the trip to the museum (about $30, 60 mins by TukTuk from Siem Reap). It was so informative, and opened our eyes to the reality of using landmines during war. There were QR codes and free WiFi we could access to listen to the information via your own phone.

Absolutely must see when in Siem Reap, it's on the way to Bantay Srei Temple. Aki Ra's work in de mining Cambodia is impressive and well documented in this museum. What I've learnt in a couple of hours here is sad but also extremely valuable. We also met Aki Ra in real life, he just invited us over for lunch with his family! I asked if he worked at the museum, he simply replies: I work at clearing mines..... I realised he is Aki Ra!

The quantity of the explosives is astonishing. Civilians are always the primary targets of weapons like mines and they suffer from them decades after the war.

A unique museum telling the stories of those affected by land mines. While you’re there, buy some souvenirs to help fund their work to remove land mines that are killing people daily.

It was very interesting to learn of the tragic history of the country and all the work they try to do to make it better. Tells you a lot of the daily life in Cambodia

This temple was absolutely amazing. One of the best temples in all of Ankor Wat! The feeling of mystery and shroud here are infinite. The location is beautifully set along with some amazing amazing information (the most interesting in the entire ankor complex) set near the imposing entryway guarded by many stone statues. The story of this temple like one or two others is one of conservation efforts and blending structures with nature itself. Probably the most interesting place in the area. It feels like an endless maze inside due to the architectural genius. Highly recommended to stop in the little house area left of the sign to read about the temple as its one of the few that provides any meaningful info on what you’re actually seeing. This is a MUST VISIT location on your tour.

This is one of my favourite temples in the Angkor Complex, really amazing architecture and its still in very good condition, especially if you want to see the reliefs that were carved above doors and in archways. Some of the two storey architecture there is a testament to the skill of the original builders and there's a massive tree trunk that's been cut down that shows just how large the trees once grew in the area.

One more beauty temple around. every temple you have to discover in evey way

There are 3 entrances to this temple. The temple have a very simple layout, but it feels like walking into a hall of infinity mirror. So cool! Many people will walk pass the library, because there is no sign to stop by. Like many other temples in Angkor, there aren’t much of artifacts or statues left, as there were all looted long time ago. Many of the halls are also left in ruin and you can’t walk into it.

One of the less known, smaller temples in the Angkor Wat complex, featuring long almost endless corridors, beautiful green and red colors. It is partially restored. Definitely worth a visit

Phrea Khan in Siem Reap is an amazing temple known for its unique blend of nature and architecture. It's a mysterious place where ancient ruins are embraced by jungle, creating a picturesque and tranquil atmosphere.

This is one another huge temple dedicated to Shiva/Linga. Need an hour to visit all the ruins. Just don't walk the straight way, visit the ruins on either side, marvelous. Lot of small and big structures to see (now in ruins anyways). Visited as part of Big circuit tour.

The Preah Khan Temple is a captivating site that offers a glimpse into Cambodia's rich history and architectural grandeur. As a tourist, I was struck by its imposing entrance adorned with intricate carvings, which set the tone for a memorable visit. Exploring its labyrinthine corridors and courtyards, I marveled at the impressive stone structures and the serene atmosphere that enveloped the temple grounds. While some areas showed signs of wear and tear, it only added to the temple's mystique and authenticity. Overall, my experience at Preah Khan was unforgettable, and I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Cambodia.

It was mesmerizing standing there looking at the structure told to be the library in that period.

Loved exploring this ruin. The Approach Guide describes 6-7 features to look for in this temple along with a guide on how to find them. It was quite the treasure hunt , trying to figure out where these features were. It's got elements of Hindu mythology which we loved like Krishna lifting Mount Govardhan and Reclining Vishnu.

This is a very big temple that is a little bit difficult to navigate. Since the temple is mostly symmetrical finding your way out gets complicated.

This is a beautiful and a peaceful temple that, unfortunately, begins to blend in with other ruined temples as they all follow a similar construction plan, and are in similar state of disrepair. Still, if you have a ticket that's good for more than 1 day, you should come here and get your money's worth. It is a nice and calm temple located a bit farther out to the north so it gets a little less tourist traffic.

This temple feels absolutely enormous. The sheer quantity of buildings and doorways in this complex is staggering. Though there are very few roofs to be found anymore, it isn't difficult to imagine how impressive this place was when it was built 800 years ago. This is likely the first temple you will see on the Grand Circuit, and it is a good one. Lots of history here. Certainly not the must beautiful temple you will see in Angkor, but still absolutely worth a visit

This temple is outside the Northern Gate where it was quiet with almost no tourists. In the center of the temple are a couple of holes in the ceiling so that you can align your camera with the light and make it appear as if it ignites a candle or hold the light in your hand as someone did.

Another stunning temple in the complex. To access Preah Khan, you have to walk a long pathway lined with statues and mostly shaded by trees. There's also a beautiful causeway leading to the main gate. What is unique about Preah Khan is that there's little restoration done to it compared to the other temples. It's mostly left in its original ruins and staff only does maintenance and stabilization work.

This was the first temple of the Big Tour offered by our hotel. We went by tuk tuk, which we loved. If you buy your entrance ticket online, you just need to show it upon entry to each temple. Showing it on your phone is fine. You can also purchase on the way to the temple, but with an early start of 5am, suggest doing it online. Pretty straightforward. The detailing, like all the temples is spectacular. Built by King Jayavarman VII, this 12th century temple was a little different in that it served not only as a temple, but as a city and Buddhist University. Be prepared for the heat-suggest bringing water, glasses and hat and good walking shoes. Women with exposed shoulders must cover up. There are staff who will ensure this happens.

Exploring Prasat Preah Khan: A Majestic Temple in Cambodia is a captivating journey into the heart of Cambodia's rich cultural heritage. This remarkable temple, built during the Khmer Empire's golden age, showcases a fusion of Hindu and Buddhist architectural styles. The temple complex, adorned with intricate carvings and surrounded by lush greenery, exudes a sense of spirituality and tranquility. Thanks to extensive restoration efforts, visitors can now experience the grandeur of Prasat Preah Khan and appreciate its historical and cultural significance. A visit to this awe-inspiring temple is a must for anyone exploring Cambodia's ancient wonders.

Best start of the big loop you could ask for. Design and layout differs from what you've seen on the small loop. Make sure you go all the way to the back to see what appears to be a Roman temple at the back (columns and layout give the impression).

It is a nice place to take beautiful pictures. You can leave many good memories with your family and friends.

Grass has now been cut! $5 per person entry fee. No guide and not huge amounts of info available. Many bits of complete scrap lying around! A few old vehicles with absolutely nothing about them other than the rusted bodywork. A plane and a helicopter also there but difficult to get enthusiastic about. Certainly the building near the back with info on the land mines was interesting. Overall, at this stage, hard to recommend, sorry. Needs major investment.

It's just a junkyard full of old military equipment. I'm sure it has the potential to be a great museum if the "exhibits" were cleaned and maintained. Instead it looks like time has done a number on all of the stuff here. Give it a miss unless you really really want to see rusted weapons of a bygone era.

Visited after recommendation from google review. Tickets can be bought on site at US$5 per pax. The place is not kept well and was below my expectations. However, it seemed that they are not supported not sponsored hence the lowed maintenance regime of the site. The low $5 entry pays for almost nothing if the crowd level is low and the place would likely be gone in another 5 -10 years. It would be a waste. With more visitors and more funding, I would think this would encourage the curators to have more flexibility in managing the place. You may see the other reviews for what the place have to offer. I hope the place can get support and raise the level educational quality.

Mostly just rusty tanks, troop carrier and artillery with 60% of parts missing. The path is down and back with a round shelter hilighting amputees of landmines and a poor display of what used to be rifles. There is a large helicopter at the end. Not worth the $5 but I combined with the nearby killing fields.

See artifacts of Cambodian war material from about 1970 onward. They are in ruin/relic condition. Suits me as a military history buff. Don’t be expecting restored items. Understandably, there is not much appetite and finance available for war memorabilia in Cambodia - so this is the best there is. All things considered it’s a well maintained museum, although the information placards could do with some updating. One highlight is the small-arms section where you can handle the weapons. Please treat them with respect. No doubt that privilege will eventually end one day. There’s guides who are war veterans, although I didn’t use one. Well worth 5 dollars.

The museum cost for foreigners is $5. Personally, I did not use a tour guide and I do not think they were available when I went. Try to bring cash for your ticket, but ABA should also be available. This is an open air museum with lots of weapons and machinery.

The museum shows military equipment used during the 30 years of war in Cambodia. All the outdoor exhibits are rusting away. These are desperately in need of maintenance. There is an enclosure that provides information about the landmine and unexploded ordnance issues in Cambodia. This is most informative.

Great stop close to airport. BIG museum that is different than US or EU museums. All outdoor and most equipment is not restored. So old crashed tanks, jets, helicopter, etc. Exhibits are decently put together, admission is 5$ so cheap. Nice visit.

A one of a kind war museum you won’t find anywhere else. The field is covered in destroyed soviet tanks and other military vehicles of the time. Every vehicle you can climb onto and have a look inside. At the end there is a building which contains much information about the Landmine situation in Cambodia along with many guns which can be picked up. On the way out i had a chat with one of the guys who runs the museum who told me about his time in the army and his experiences. Would recommend this hidden gem to anyone who is interested in military equipment.

I had been and enjoyed the collection in this “museum” I would name it a collection and not a museum for better expectation calibrations for your visit This was a great place to explain to my kid about the war, the consequences, etc Indeed, not much info available so it is more like a walk through items from the war to complement other visits from other places in Cambodia Somehow impactful for us and my kid t9 face the reality in Cambodia few year ago I recommend to go early in the Morning in a hot day as it is a walk in a yard. Grass was taken care. Should take between 30min to 1hrs to go around

Certainly interesting. However, the tanks and other vehicles are in a disastrous state. The outdoor area not maintained. Descriptions of the vehicles partially illegible. Unfortunately, the chance to make an important point in Cambodia's history interesting was missed here.

Don't be put off by the low key outward appearance as you approach the "museum", it is actually more of an outdoor collection of larger old military equipment and one building with an extensive collection of armaments, mines and bombs (all deactivated btw). The primary reason to go to the museum is to meet the Vietnam veteran/victim guide. He sits you down and gives a personal perspective on the cause of the wars and the horrors of war, especially civil war. He has been injured 9 times due to the war (with the lose of a leg, partial blindness, many pieces of shrapnel still, scars, and has actually died and been revived several times), lost all of his family and friends in the war, and 6 months ago, trajectly his wife to an abandoned landmine. I am ex-military, and our time with him reminds me that there are really no "winners" in war and we need to be reminded of that in present day!

A unique and interesting way to present the war "relics" or past collections! Most of the items were placed at the open space, at the fields. No air conditioned buildings, not much write ups and no hi tech to furnish information. I am one, who prefer to read for more details (with pictures) and to understand more. However, the collections displayed were interesting.

For the moment the museum is just a bunch of scrap of metal in deep uncut grass. There is only 1 exposition area for the moment, and the others are destroyed. Very difficult to move around. I really hope that they are renovating but trying to keep the place open. I payed 5$ to a random guys at the entrance and that’s it..right now I don’t recommend a visit, hope they fix the place properly!

This is a good place to spend an hour or so. Entry is $5, which is slightly expensive but you are paired with a guide who lived through the war and tells you all about it, making it very worthwhile. Expect to pay a tip for his time. You can also walk around on your own, but it is better with a guide. The museum is essentially one big garden filled with machinery, guns, and vehicles from the war. You can climb on the tanks and hold some of the weapons to get a feel for just how big and heavy they are. There are also two planes. They all have signs with information, and there are some big signs with stories from local villagers. The garden is full of mango trees which provide shade, making it comfortable to visit at any time of day.

This place was ok. Lots of old tanks, a helicopter and a jet. One room with old weapons. Everything is very run down but we still enjoyed our visit. Entry fee is a little steep for what it is. However it keeps some people employed and gives you some insight into the history they have been through.

The War Museum in Siem Reap is really just a bunch of old war relics laying around in someone’s back yard. And it’s a very wet and muddy back yard at that. Little effort has been put into making it an actual Museum that explains what the exhibits are or where they were used. On the positive side you get to get up close and personal with the equipment!!

It's a scrapyard that identifies itself as a museum. The most interesting part of it is a small shed with land mines and firearms inside. Most of the weapons look like they've been found in the woods and just brought to the "museum". There was no staff and video surveillance in the area so I spent about 30 minutes playing with all AKs they stored there so now the "exhibition" consists of several deactivated AKs and one in absolutely working condition :)

We enjoyed our walking around the museum and talking about the history together. We did not take a guide but we didn’t really need one. This is a sad history for Cambodia but also a good learning opportunity for tourists and Khmer alike. Admission is $5 for foreigners and free for Khmer and Cambodian citizens.

It's worth a visit but is full of scrap metal, but there are a lot of interesting things to see there, and you can handle some of the guns there. 5$ entrance fee.

It’s more of an open field with scattered wartime relics and old rusty equipment, seems there is no funding for maintenance or better displays, which is understandable given Cambodia’s economy. Veteran soldiers are present for a guided tour with additional charge. Most of the old weapons come from the defunct USSR, China and other communist regimes of the same era. It worths a short visit if you are a history buff, however would advise on visiting during a dry day, as the field is open to elements and can get muddy and messy if you visit on a rainy day

$5.00 USD to enter this museum. It is pretty much all outdoors. You see all kinds of tanks, artillery and weapons. You are encouraged to climb all the war relics and really get a hands on appreciation for the weapons used in the Cambodian military conflicts. I recommend.

A bit off the beaten track but not n my view not worth the effort or cost ($5). It’s not really a museum but more of a wreck/ scrap yard. It might be more interesting to young kids but adults only can definitely give this a miss.

Does not exist

Not fresh food. Allot of smelly seafood and bakso

So nice place

As of January 2021 its closed and from the looks of it maybe indefinitely due to the coronavirus maybe in a few months it will open back up but it's been dead for months literally closed.

Very pushy vendors, don't take no for an answer. Can't stop long enough to look at much without being bombarded.

great place to shop few years ago

Nice place for buying sovereign’s but need to bargain the price ex if the say 5$ ask for 2.5$ most of the time they give . But I like the place have variety of items to buy and also u can see duty free outlet near

Does not exist (anymore)
