SIEM REAP PACKAGE 4 DAYS
Siem Reap

For over five hundred years, Angkor was at the core of one of humankind's greatest civilizations & one of the largest cities on earth at that time. It has been said the temples of Angkor represent the finest architectural artistry in human history. To comprehend their grandeur and magnificence requires imagination. Imagine the Great Egyptian Pyramids at Giza if every stone were carved with portrayals of fantastic myths and legends. To better grasp the sheer scale, both St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome and St. Paul’s Cathedral in London would fit easily inside the perimeter walls of Angkor Wat. Cambodia today has much to offer the curious and adventurous traveler.
