When is the best month to travel to Angkor Wat?

It is best to travel to Angkor Wat from November to February.

It's the dry season, the weather is fine, and it's cool in the morning and evening, so you can watch the sunrise and sunset of Angkor.

But at this time, Angkor Wat is almost dry, and ships from Phnom Penh to Siem Reap may be suspended.

March-May is a hot season, which should be avoided as much as possible. June-October is the rainy season, usually sunny in the morning and rainy from noon to afternoon. In the rainy season, there are wet trees and stones in Angkor Wat, which makes the photos more textured.

But the road is slippery and the weather is sultry, so it is difficult to see the sunrise and sunset of Angkor. Angkor is very hot at noon, so it is best to rest in a shady temple or back to the hotel.

Angkor Wat

Angkor Wat, also known as Angkor Wat Temple, is located in Cambodia. It is called the national treasure of Cambodia, the largest temple in the world and the earliest Khmer architecture in the world. The original name of Angkor Wat is Vrah Vishnulok, which means "the temple of Vishnu", and the ancient Buddhist books in China call it "Sangxiang Buddhist House".

in the 12th century, Suryavarman II II, the king of Angkor, hoped to build a grand grotto temple on the flat land as the capital and national temple of Angkor. Therefore, it took about 35 years to build the whole country. It is the best preserved building among Angkor monuments, and is famous for its magnificent architecture and meticulous relief.

In p>1992, UNESCO listed Angkor as a world cultural heritage. Since then, Angkor Wat, as the top priority of Angkor monuments, has become a beautiful tourist card in Cambodia.

For more than 1 years, countries all over the world, including China, have invested a lot of money and manpower in the maintenance project of Angkor Wat to protect this world cultural heritage. The shape of Angkor Wat has become a national symbol of Cambodia and is displayed on the national flag of Cambodia.
