What to eat in Siem Reap
Talking about Siem Reap, of course, people would mention temples, arts, and nightlife at Pub Street. In fact, Siem Reap has more to offer especially the local food that make it unique to visitors. By this December 8th, there will be a big event to be held in Siem Reap - the Angkor Wat International Half Marathon. From now until the event is a good opportunity for people to explore where those eateries are.
24 Hours In Cambodia | Private Sunrise Tour $110- WORTH IT?
Since I went to Siem Reap alone, I got a private guide and driver. Let's get this out of the way first, How much did it cost? It cost me $110 USD , for a 10 hour experience. Now the cost would be reduced by almost half if you were with a friend, and a third if you with another, and so on, and so forth. I felt this was the best choice for me, to get the full experience, be able to video and speak freely, and move about in as little or as much time as I wanted. Plus, he took some really awesome photos for me! The entrance fee is $20 (£15) to $37 (£28) for a one-day pass, a three-day pass from $40 (£31) to $62 (£48) and a seven-day ticket from $60 (£46) to $72 (£55)
The visa system was extremely efficient. Don't forget to bring a photo, but if you do, they have people who can photograph you at an inexpensive cost, but it'll take time. For me, I had a photo with me and filled out the visa form in line- it took me about 10 minutes.
That evening, I went to the market to buy some clothes that will cover my knees and shoulders. The temples have a strictly enforced, no exposed body parts, rule.
The first temple I went to, is Angkor Wat and I went at 5am for sunrise. I enjoyed the whole experience, albeit tiring.
I just wanted to say, at about 4:50, the statue isn't a hindu statue but rather a buddhist statue with a buddhist robe, but an example of one is in 6:40 (Hindu God Vishnu with a Buddhist robe). To get the full effect of the echo room: listen with headphones- the reverb is seriously cool!
The second temple I went to is Phnom Bakheng Temple. It has 5 tiers and overlooks Angkor Wat. The third temple is called Bayon Temple- a temple known for the many heads that face in all directions. It's really magnificent there.
Ta Keo Temple is fourth- beautiful too- lots to steps though. But what really stood out to me about this temple is kindness. I joined some locals for beers ($1USD), and there was a chance you'd win another beer with the beer (it was one of those, lift the top of the can, kind of contest/games). I bought a round ($6USD) and won a free beer too. It's ridiculous, a drink in Canada is about $10...
The fifth and last temple is Ta Prohm Temple- tomb raider temple had a lot of really interesting tree growth. By this time, I was sooooo tired. So it was nice to end the tour with a Hollywood film location :)
That evening, I took the tuk tuk (the motorcycle buggies) to the circus (Phare). For $18 USD, I'd recommend it. It's interesting, teaches you a bit about culture, it gives you a chance to support local artists.
These take a long time to make, so if you liked it, let me know by:

Is ANGKOR WAT Worth Visiting? - Siem Reap Cambodia
Is Angkor Wat worth visiting? Let us show in an in depth look at Angkor Wat Temple in Siem Reap Cambodia so you can decide if it’s worth battling the crowds to see the biggest temple in the world. We also show you another temple in Siem Reap that is a great Angkor Wat alternative, Bantaey Srei. Welcome to Cambodia, DBV Fam!
During our short stay in Siem Reap, Cambodia, the one vlog we wanted to make was a temples of Angkor video. Of course, first up on our list was Angkor Wat. We were initially skeptical of visiting Angkor Wat due to the fact that over 2 million people visit this Khmer temple every year. We couldn’t stop wondering, is Angkor Wat worth visiting? We set out on a mission to let you guys know! When we arrived at the temple, we were pleasantly surprised that there were very few people there. One of our biggest tips to visiting Angkor Wat would be skip the sunrise and head to the temple around noon on a weekday. If you can handle the direct sunlight and heat, you will be rewarded with practically empty temple grounds just like us! Right as we were leaving around 2pm the crowds started flowing into Angkor Wat again right was we were leaving.
Angkor Wat is the biggest temple in the world and it is also known as the best temple in Siem Reap Cambodia. I don’t know if we can whole heartedly agree that it’s the “best” temple, but it certainly is the most famous of the Siem Reap temples. Although ticket prices are steep, $37 for a 1 day pass, the answer to the question is Angkor Wat worth visiting is yes. The temple is certainly worth seeing and the ticket price covers your admission to many other temples in Siem Reap throughout the Angkor Archaeological Park.
We were dead set on finding some temples other than Angkor Wat to show you guys, since it’s so heavily covered already on YouTube. We found the most beautiful little temple about an hours motorbike ride north of Angkor Wat called Bantaey Srei Temple. Bantaey Srei is a small temple made almost entirely out of pink sandstone which is a gorgeous color and a material suitable for easy carving. The intricate carvings are definitely the highlight of Bantaey Srei. We suggest heading there around golden hour, 3-5pm so you can see the amazing soft light illuminate the pink sandstone. This temple was not crowded when we got there at 4pm, however we did see tour buses leaving when we arrived. Overall, we recommend this as a good Angkor Wat alternative, however you won’t see the grand size of Angkor Wat Temple here. Overall, it’s best to couple Bantaey Srei with Angkor for a full Siem Reap temple experience.
If you have any questions about the history of Angkor Wat, tips for visiting Angkor Wat or anything regarding travel in general, please leave a comment down below! Unfortunately, this is our one and only Cambodia travel vlog as we were very tied up with work over the two weeks we stayed in Siem Reap Cambodia. However, we loved Cambodia so much we are already planning a trip to visit the southern islands. Although we didn’t film, we did a lot of other things during our stay so if you have any questions on what to do in Siem Reap please let us know. Until next time, seeya!

Visiting ANGKOR WAT With The Best Guide // Siem Reap, Cambodia 2019 #7
After arriving in Siem Reap mid afternoon, we wasted no time and headed straight for the ticket office to get our 1 day pass for Angkor Wat ($37 USD). The pass not only entitles you to access the gigantic Angkor Wat temple, but also surrounding temples in the park, such as Pre Rup, Srah Srang, Bayon Temple and Ta Prohm, which was used in the filming of Lara Croft, Tomb Raider movie.
We purchased our tickets at 5:00pm, for the next day, however as long as you buy the ticket after 5:00pm you can access the park for free for the remaining couple of hours on that day, so you get the best value for money. We had hoped to see Sunset in the park, but unfortunately the weather conditions weren't favorable.
The following morning we had arranged to be picked up by our guide, Mr Bean, at 4:45am to take us to Angkor Wat for sunrise before doing most of the temples on the small circuit.
We'd definitely recommend getting up and doing the sunrise tour, if for no other reason than the heat in the park is HOT!!! getting there early enables you to explore the temples in less extreme heat.
Mr Bean was a fantastic tour guide with a wealth of knowledge about the temples we visited. He spoke reasonable English and his photography skills, and knowing the best places to capture the temples were excellent. He also somehow managed to know where all the big tour groups were heading, so we managed to avoid the crowds throughout the day. He was also a genuinely nice guy to spend the day with, and we can't recommend him enough.
He can be found on Facebook under TukTuk Bean.

ᄿOUR STORY: Backroads of Montana. Watch Video here:
Our Story
Life is crazy! The tide smashes even the best-laid plans to sand… and so it goes!
This is a story about two people, who met by chance, were bound by fate and who continue to let the quirky side of life guide their paths! How else could a young man from a tiny town in Albania and a farm girl from the mountains of Montana meet in the middle, with a life guided by adventure?
We met in Rome. Engjell was a waiter in a little Roman restaurant down by Trevi Fountain and I was a student abroad, spending a year in the Eternal City. There are some pretty cheesy movies about the giggly American girl meeting the handsome foreigner abroad, who then spend all their time bombing around ancient ruins on a shiny moped, hair blowing in the wind and smiles from ear to ear. And yet… serendipity delivers! We did fall in love and he did have a moped…
In 2006, we moved back to the United States. We returned as a family of three, as little Fiona had been born in Rome at FateBeneFratelli, the hospital on an island… where all the Roman babies have been born for centuries! We moved often, looking for the perfect place. In 2010, we found an opportunity to open our own restaurant in Bigfork, Montana. We spent seven years and thousands of hours bringing the flavors of Italy to rural Montana. We were doing well! We were successful and busy and had finally bought our own home… we had a mortgage and car payments and a full-time, ultra-demanding job! We opened a second restaurant! We even added two more family members with the addition of Hugo and Remy!
We were living the dream! Or were we? On the outside, it looked like we had it all… that success had reached out its hand and we had graciously accepted. But in reality, we were working 80-100 hours each per week, we rarely saw our three beautiful kids who knew the nanny better than they did us, and we were burned out… from too much work, from too little time spent together as a family, from life! We had bought into the well-oiled idea of success and were realizing quickly the fatal flaws in our plan.
So we decided, together, to give it all up! We took the giant, terrifying, leap and sold it all to travel on a shoestring budget and let life teach us again, teach us anew, of what it looks like to be a successful human being! We are just beginning on this wonderful adventure! We have been traveling the U.S. for a year as a family in a motorhome. We are every day astounded by the diversity and creativity of both humans and Mother Nature. In July, we will set off for a one year trip around the world!
This time, too, food and wine lead our adventure. We hope to dig deep into every culture as we go, unearthing culinary tradition everywhere we go! We plan to travel to places where we can stage and work in restaurants and vineyards to learn more and to ultimately be able to take what we have learned and start fresh…inspired, changed… wherever we end up.
This trip is about re-defining success! It is about food and wine…about a plate of pasta or a shared bottle of wine, about experiences! It is about family and figuring out how we all fit together and what life’s REAL plan for us is! We invite you to join us in this crazy adventure as we travel the world!
Engjell, Kaleigh, Fiona, Hugo and Remy
Things to do in Siem Reap, besides visiting Angkor Wat | Cambodia
It has been recorded early 2017 over my two weeks stay and I've structured it in a travel preview format for people who plan to visit (and not only) to get an idea of what they can expect to see here.
VietCamLao Chapter 17 - Cambodia. Angkor Wat and Koh Ker
Our Cambodian trip started from this small provincial capital. For a lot of tourists, Krong Stung Treng is a common stopover on the way to or from Laos. Town itself does not have too much to offer apart of the local market, couple of restaurants, guesthouses and Mekong river. After a good breakfast and brief market exploration we were ready to start our Cambodian trip!
Our primary destination was Siem Reap with its Angkor Wat complex. So basically over 300 km of paved road and full day of driving was waiting for us!
On the way we couldn’t miss Koh Ker temple, that’s situated about 120 kilometres northeast of Siem Reap. Koh Ker in ancient inscriptions, was the capital of the Khmer Empire for a very brief period from 928 to 944 CE. In this short time, as well as before and after, many sanctuaries were built and a spectacular 36-metre high seven-tiered pyramid Prasat Thom was erected. More than 180 sanctuaries have been found in an area of 81 square km. Since 1992 the site of Koh Ker has been on UNESCO's Tentative List of World Heritage Sites.
Our next obvious stop was Siem Reap; thanks to its Angkor Wat complex its the most visited site in Cambodia. Town has great variety of accommodation and good selection of restaurants for any pocket size.
Talking about Angkor: entrance fee in low season is 20 USD and probably its worth it as it's one of the most important archaeological sites of Southeast Asia. It extends over approximately 400 square kilometres and consists of scores of temples, hydraulic structures as well as communication routes. For several centuries Angkor, was the centre of the Khmer Kingdom.
Angkor was named a World Heritage site in 1992. The Angkor complex represents the entire range of Khmer art from the 9th to the 14th centuries, and includes a number of indisputable artistic masterpieces.
Our first stop was at Banteay Kdei. Its name means “Citadel of Chambers”. The ruins are a fascinating maze of chambers that are a delight to explore. Also serving as a Buddhist temple, these ruins have been home to an active monastery at multiple time periods since their construction in the 12th century.
Next temple we visited was Pre Rup. The modern name of this imposing and intriguing temple mountain translates as ‘turning the body’, referring to an ancient cremation rite but its origins were unrelated to cremation ceremonies.
After warm up with smaller temples we were ready for the most important and impressive once so it was time to visit the heart of Angkor Thom with its 12th-century Bayon temple. The Bayon was the last state temple to be built at Angkor, and the only Angkorian state temple to be built primarily as a Mahayana Buddhist shrine dedicated to the Buddha. 37 standing towers belong to Bayon temple with the central tower rising 43 meters above the ground.
In Khmer Angkor Wat means City of Temples”. Angkor Wat is the heart and soul of Cambodia and a source of fierce national pride. It even appears on the nation’s flag. Unlike the other Angkor monuments, it was never abandoned to the elements and has been in virtually continuous use since it was built. It was originally built in the first half of the 12th century by Emperor Suryavarman II as the state temple and political center of his empire. Originally dedicated to the Hindu god Vishnu, Angkor Wat became a Buddhist temple by the end of the 12th century.
You need to be really fast and efficient if you decided to explore the whole complex in one day (as we did). Bring enough water and some snacks as it can be really hot and long day.
We couldn't miss the capital of Cambodia on the way to the south. Phnom Penh definitely has the vide of the big capital and in our opinion worth couple of days of visit .
For many thousands of years, the art of stone carving has flourished in Cambodia. From the small statues made by local artisans to the famous, breathtaking carvings found at Angkor Wat, stone carving has become one of the country's most cherished art forms. We were lucky to witness this amazing work in progress on the way to the seaside. After a long day of driving, we finally got to the ocean. The plan was to visit Kampot and Kep. The area offers a wide choice of accommodations and ferry departures to the offshore islands. We stopped there just for two nights. It was enough to check the whole area with its not very inviting water and overpriced restaurants. Unfortunately we didn't have much time for deeper exploration. We were ready to make our way to Vietnam
The Great Khmer King Jayavarman VII Show |The Cambodian Cultural Village in Siem Reap
It's the big theatre at the Cambodian Cultural Village in Siem Reap province presented a show called The Great Khmer King Jayavarman 7th. It's a story from the Angkor Era, the wars and building of temples in Cambodia. King Jayavarman 7th was great in war and built the most temples back in the past. His majesty is the king that built Angkor Thom, Bayon, Angkor Wat temple, the world most valuable heritage and the temple that brought the most tourists to Cambodia. It's a great and excited show that might bring tear to audiences cuz the history was so bitter and came across many obstacles. Anyway, we're here today the Cambodia, Kingdom of Wonder.
Thank you very much for watching. Please help SUBSCRIBE, LIKE and SHARE this video to help promote Cambodia to all Khmers and the world.
Your support is a huge encouragement for me as a Khmer to continue sharing the tourist attraction places and lifestyles in Cambodia to all Khmer and the World and bring more tourists to Cambodia.

Siem Reap, Cambodia :: Angkor Wat and So Many Things To Do
The girls are in Utah, and Isaac and I are in Bali by ourselves. Every month or two, foreigners usually leave Bali to renew their visas. For our visa run, Isaac and I are going to travel Cambodia. We are going to Siem Reap, the city juxtaposed next to Angkor Wat, one of the Wonders of the World.
Angkor Wat was built around 800 years ago, mostly by slaves, though some say that Aliens built it (since it was constructed in only thirty-seven years. Quick!). Though Angkor Wat is the star of the old Khmer ruins and khmer temples, there are other sites--many other old archeological sites--in the region, like Angkor Thom and Phnom Kulen.
From the airport, instead of a standard taxi, we opt to take a remork, or remorque (like a tuk-tuk) to Siem Reap. We arrive at Steung Seimreap Hotel safe and sound, our hair tousled by the wind. That evening, like every evening, we go out for dinner to one of the many restaurants strewn in the blocks around our hotel. So convenient.
Besides eating (like delicious khmer chicken curry), we get massages, visit Angkor Wat and Angkor Thom ourselves (Isaac receives a buddhist blessing there), and spend three hours cruising around the Siem Reap countryside on ATVs. Although I was reluctant to let Isaac drive one himself, he insisted. And I'm glad he did. He handled himself just fine and he had a blast.
Speaking of vehicles, on one 15 minute remork ride, we counted all the Lexus Rx's we saw. We counted 97 Rx 300's, 330's, 350's, and 400h's. Cambodia is the place where U.S. Rx's come to die!
After a four days in Cambodia, we returned to Bali to get an updated visa stamp. Our visas are good in Bali until we leave for the Philippines on June 29th.

カンボジア王国（カンボジアおうこく）、通称カンボジアは、東南アジアのインドシナ半島南部に位置する立憲君主制国家。ASEAN加盟国、通貨はリエル、人口1,513万人、首都はプノンペン。1970年にカンボジア王国が倒れてから勃発したカンボジア内戦を経て、1993年に誕生した。南はタイランド湾に面し、西はタイ、北はラオス、東はベトナムと国境を接する。国民の90%以上が、クメール語（カンボジア語）を話し、仏教（上座部仏教）を奉ずるクメール人（カンボジア人）である。
Cambodia (Listeni/kæmˈboʊdiə/;[7] Khmer: កម្ពុជា, Kampuchea, IPA: [kɑmˈpuˈciə]), officially known as the Kingdom of Cambodia (Khmer: ព្រះរាជាណាចក្រកម្ពុជា, Preăh Réachéanachâk Kâmpŭchéa) and once known as the Khmer Empire, is a country located in the southern portion of the Indochina Peninsula in Southeast Asia. Its total landmass is 181,035 square kilometres (69,898 sq mi), bordered by Thailand to the northwest, Laos to the northeast, Vietnam to the east, and the Gulf of Thailand to the southwest. With a population of over 15 million, Cambodia is the 69th most populous country in the world. The official religion is Theravada Buddhism, practiced by approximately 95 percent of the population. The country's minority groups include Vietnamese, Chinese, Chams, and 30 hill tribes.[8] The capital and largest city is Phnom Penh, the political, economic, and cultural center of Cambodia. The kingdom is a constitutional monarchy with Norodom Sihamoni, a monarch chosen by the Royal Throne Council, as head of state. The head of government is Hun Sen, who is currently the longest serving non-royal leader in South East Asia and has ruled Cambodia for over 25 years. Cambodia's ancient name is Kambuja (Sanskrit: कंबुज).[9] In 802 AD, Jayavarman II declared himself king and marked the beginning of the Khmer Empire which flourished for over 600 years, allowing successive kings to dominate much of Southeast Asia and accumulate immense power and wealth. The Indianized kingdom built monumental temples including Angkor Wat, now a World Heritage Site, and facilitated the spread of first Hinduism, then Buddhism to much of Southeast Asia. After the fall of Angkor to Ayutthaya in the 15th century, Cambodia was then ruled as a vassal between its neighbors. Cambodia became a protectorate of France in 1863, and gained independence in 1953. The Vietnam War extended into Cambodia, and following the US bombing of Cambodia from 1969-1973, the Khmer Rouge emerged as a major power, taking Phnom Penh in 1975 and later carrying out the Cambodian Genocide from 1975 until 1979, when they were ousted by Vietnam and the Vietnamese backed People's Republic of Kampuchea in the Cambodian–Vietnamese War (1979-1991). Following the 1991 Paris Peace Accords Cambodia was governed briefly by a United Nations mission (1992-1993). The UN withdrew after holding elections in which around 90 percent of the registered voters cast ballots. The 1997 coup placed power solely in the hands of Prime Minister Hun Sen and the Cambodian People's Party, who remains in power as of 2015. The country faces numerous challenges and sociopolitical issues, including widespread poverty,[10] pervasive corruption,[11] lack of political freedoms,[12] low human development,[13] and a high rate of hunger.[14][15][16] Cambodia has been described by one author as a vaguely communist free-market state with a relatively authoritarian coalition ruling over a superficial democracy.[17] A low income economy, Cambodia nonetheless has one of the best economic records in Asia, with growth averaging 6 percent over the last decade. Agriculture remains the dominant economic sector, with strong growth in textiles, construction, garments, and tourism leading to increased foreign investment and international trade.[18]

Cambodia - 10 Best Places to Visit In Cambodia
10 BEST PLACES TO VISIT IN CAMBODIA
1- Angkor Wat is the largest religious monument in the world and built in the 12th century. This legendary temple was originally built as a Hindu temple for the god of Vishnu, but later in the 14th century it had been converted into a Buddhist temple. The temple is rich in Apsaras nymphs or carvings which are entirely unique and well worth checking out.
2- Koh Ker was once the Khmer capital from 928AD to 944AD and now a quite intriguing archaeological site. This remote site was for a long time left abandoned and neglected which lead to significant encroachment of wildlife to create a greater sense of mystery. This archaeological site has several spectacular buildings that are easily explored on a day-trip from Siem Reap. The major highlight of the site is the seven-tier Prasat Thom which is a sandstone pyramid-shaped temple. It stands at a total height of 98-ft with a mythical half-bird, half-man figure standing on top. Beyond the beauty of Prasat Thom, there are also a further 42 structures in the local area that are worth exploring.
3- Koh Rong is a striking island in the Gulf of Thailand with its turquoise-green waters and white sandy beaches that can easily stand up to many of the tropical paradises elsewhere in SE Asia. This island is appreciated for its coral reefs and sandy coves, while the interior of the island is thick with pristine jungle that is dotted with stunning waterfalls and coconut palms. The island’s interior is also home to many different species of birds and other wildlife. A stay on this island for a short break is fairly peaceful and relaxing, although there is the opportunity to get involved in activities like trekking, snorkelling, diving and zip lines.
4- Koh Tonsay (also referred to as Rabbit Island) is a peaceful, secluded and untouched island located off Cambodia’s south coast. It is easy to reach from Kep with a 20-25 minute boat journey, but still seems to take the travellers completely away from the bustle and bustle of the mainland. This island has several open-air restaurants and rustic bungalows to make a tranquil place to stay with its tree-lined beach and lounging in hammocks. Kon Tonsay is relatively small and possible to walk the entire island in just a day. With no air-conditioning, Wi-Fi or television, a visit to this island on the Vietnam and Cambodia tours is certain to give an island paradise away from modern living.
5- Kratie was a former base of the Khmer Rouge at an early point in their campaign, which left this part of Cambodia relatively free of destruction. For this reason, this town is rich in striking French colonial buildings that appear along the length of the riverfront. Plus, this charming riverfront area is a perfect place to sit and watch the stunning sunsets over the Mekong River in the evening. Beyond the ability to capture the peaceful and tranquil landscape on the Indochina tours, a visit to Kratie gives a perfect opportunity to see the freshwater Irrawaddy dolphins which are located approx 14km from town.
6- Mondulkiri is rich in stunning landscape with its valleys, waterfalls, jungles and rolling hills. This province is home to a variety of endangered and rare species, such as the elephants, water buffalo and leopards. .

From the contemporary restaurants and bars to crowded markets and glittering Royal Palace, a visit to Phnom Penh on the Cambodia tour packages is certain to benefit from exploring this complex city with plenty to see and do.
8- Popokvil Waterfall is located in the stunning Bokor National Park and looks its striking best throughout the rainy season. This two-tiered waterfall seems to have an ever-present mist and is surrounded by pretty rain forest scenery. A stop at the waterfall is great for a relaxing swim while in the national park, and for a few lucky travellers, it may even be possible to catch sight of a few of the rare animals that live in this country, such as the Malayan sun bear and pig-tailed macaque.
9- Set in the Dangrek Mountains at 1,722-ft, the Preah Vihear is a quite stunning Khmer temple built in the 11th and 12th centuries and gives wonderful views that span across the lowlands of Cambodia. The temple complex stretches over an area of nearly 2,000-ft with many of the buildings featuring intricate carvings.
