East Meets West
Siem Reap is a town rich in history, where east fuses with west in
spectacular style, situated at the foot of Cambodia’s Angkor Wat Temple
complex. This old French colonial capital echoes European influences,
with shuttered windows and delicate ironwork, but now interspersed with a
buzzing nightlife, street food on tap, night markets and cafes.
Your first 3 days will be a gentle introduction to the hustle and
bustle of Asian life, whilst we show you some of the city’s highlights,
such as Angkor Wat - get ready for an early start to see sunrise at
the temple, the world’s largest religious building. Spend the whole day
tuk tuking your way around the incredible complex.
Phnom Kulen
