Angkor Wat
Trip Planning & Itineraries
Prepare for divine inspiration! The temples of Angkor, capital of Cambodia's ancient Khmer empire, are the perfect fusion of creative ambition and spiritual devotion. The Cambodian god-kings of old each strove to better their ancestors in size, scale and symmetry, culminating in the world's largest religious building - Angkor Wat.
Today, the temples are a point of pilgrimage for all Cambodians, and no traveller to the region will want to miss their extravagant beauty.
How much temple time?
It is easy to spend as long as a week at Angkor, seeing the temples at a leisurely pace, returning to the principal attractions several times to see them at different times of day, and taking in newly emerging sites further afield.
However, many travelers feel that four or five days is the optimum length of time to spend at Angkor. This is just about long enough to fit in all the highlights of the area, but even with only two days at your disposal you can pack in a lot (if you make some early starts).
