Hoogtepunten

Siem Reap has withstood the test of time during past wars; remnants of these times are shown when we take you around Siem Reap to a local pagoda and the interesting War Museum. Beyond the temples, this half day tour reveals a different, more recent side of Siem Reap's history. Start at Wat Thmey, a small pagoda where young monks study English and where a memorial stupa holds the remains of victims of the Khmer Rouge regime. Continue to the War Museum Cambodia, home to tanks, artillery and aircraft from three decades of conflict, offering insight into a period that shaped modern Cambodia. Finish at Les Artisans d'Angkor, a social enterprise reviving traditional Khmer stone carving and wood sculpture, currently expanding into a new Living Art Village campus set to open in November 2026. A chance to browse the finished artwork closes out the visit before the return to your hotel. A half day that moves from remembrance to resilience, and ends with Cambodia's living craft traditions.

Route

  1. We start our half day with a visit to Wat Thmey. This small pagoda has been thriving with life as many young monks see this as one of the most important places in Siem Reap to brush up on their English skills. The pagoda is well-known as a reminder of the cruel acts from the Khmer Rouge – a dedicated Killing Field memorial stupa has been erected on the temple grounds as a reminder of the harshness in the past. The stupa contains bones and skulls who have succumbed under the practices by the Khmer Rouge in the 20th century.

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.

Top-ranked sights in Siem Reap: Angkor Thom, Tonlé Sap, Kampong Phluk.
