Siem Reap
Gateway to the temples of Angkor, from Angkor Wat at dawn to the faces of the Bayon.
- Best season
- November to March

The temples of Angkor were the heart of the Khmer Empire. We time each visit to avoid the crowds: Angkor Wat at first light, the Bayon at midday, Ta Prohm late in the afternoon when the light falls through the trees.
