1 – Siem Reap & Angkor Wat

Angkor Wat is a GIGANTIC ancient Buddhist temple complex, located in Siem Reap, Cambodia. It was originally built in the first half of the 12th century as a Hindu temple. Spread across more than 400 acres, Angkor Wat is said to be the largest religious monument in the world.

To properly explore these historic grounds, I would allow at least 3 days. Definitely hire a tuk-tuk driver. They will pick you up wherever you’re staying before sunrise so you can get the best light. Of course there WILL BE a ton of people doing the same thing. However you can always find a remote spot if you wander off the path. Such as these spots I found in both images above.
