The Angkor / Siem Reap area is perhaps the top tourist destination in Cambodia. It goes without saying that the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Angkor Wat Temple is the first thing (after the horrible genocide and atrocities carried out by the Khmer Rouge, of course) that comes to the mind of the traveler when Cambodia is mentioned, and Ta Prohm Temple (part of the Angkor Thom temple complex) is likely the second thing that comes to mind given the popularity of the movie ‘Tomb Raider’. With its nearby historic temples, opportunities for outdoor adventures and activities, numerous venues for exploring the richness of the country’s exotic culture and cuisine, and an ever-evolving nightlife, Siem Reap has something to offer for everyone. The following are photos that I took during a 4-day visit in 2009; my video ‘Angkor and Siem Reap, Cambodia – 2009’ can be seen at http://www.youtube.com/user/el2995 . Enjoy!
