As Cambodia's unofficial tourism capital, Siem Reap boasts hundreds of natural and manmade attractions such as breathtaking temples, well-preserved colonial buildings, unique museums, cultural theme parks, expansive lakes and verdant mountains.
The main reason why so many people come to Siem Reap is for Angkor Wat. The temple is the world's biggest religious structure and its size is breath-taking. You have to remind yourself that this temple was built nearly 1000 years ago without any of the technology we have today.
