About Siem Reap

Siem Reap ligt aan de rivier naast Angkor, het uitgestrekte Khmer-tempelcomplex van Cambodja, met nachtmarkten, riviertochten en een rustig centrum.

Angkor Wat, vaak het grootste religieuze monument ter wereld genoemd, rijst op boven zijn slotgracht in een silhouet van torens als lotusknoppen dat bij zonsopgang adembenemend is. Vlakbij herbergt de ommuurde stad Angkor Thom de Bayon, met zijn meer dan tweehonderd serene stenen gezichten, het Terras van de Olifanten en de Baphuon, terwijl Ta Prohm in de greep zit van de wortels van gigantische kapokbomen en wurgvijgen.
