Weekend Guide: Siem Reap and Angkor Wat

Angkor Wat is the ancient temple of the Khmer empire, originally constructed as a Hindu temple and later converted into a Buddhist temple. However, there is so much more to see other than the temple complex, such as the gigantic city of Angkor Thom, the “Tomb Raider” temple: Ta Prohm, and the beautifully intricate Banteay Srei. The days might be long, but feeling like you’re Indiana Jones exploring abandoned temples and tombs is absolutely incredible.
