Siem Reap Town

Siem Reap town needs no introduction. It is gateway to the majestic temples of Angkor and a world-renowned destination in its own right that draws millions of visitors from all over the world. Attractions include the world’s largest religious building, the one and only Angkor Wat; the mysterious and enigmatic faces of the Bayon temple; and the jungle ruins of Ta Prohm, straight out of a Hollywood movie set.
