Things to do in Siem Reap
See Angkor Wat at sunrise. 4am is early but the view is amazing and the temperature is a lot cooler. It was very hot and humid when we went.
See Ta Prohm. Massive tree roots grew through the ruins – pretty amazing sight. I would skip the other temples since they don’t compare to Angkor Wat and Ta Prohm.
Ta Prohm
Stay at Khmer Mansion. The service at this hotel blew us away. The owners are extremely nice and went above and beyond. Sign up for the Angkor Wat tour through the hotel.
Go to the Killing Fields. Learn more about Pol Pot, the Khmer Rouge Regime and how the country is trying to recover.
