Siem Reap, day by day
Siem Reap is the small riverside town at the gate of Angkor, the 400-square-kilometre park of temples that was the capital of the Khmer empire, and three days here are three days of sunrise at Angkor Wat, the stone faces of the Bayon, the tree roots of Ta Prohm, the pink carvings of Banteay Srei, the grand-circuit temples, a stilt village on the Tonlé Sap lake and a circus that grew out of a refugee camp. Start with three days built around the Angkor Pass, with the prices, hours and rules the park and the institutions publish for 2026.
