[Cambodia] Asia's largest power spot! Angkor Wat

I love this view so much that I've visited Angkor Wat four times!
The afternoons are too hot for sightseeing, so I recommend visiting in the morning.
The sunrise at Angkor Wat is especially mystical and definitely worth seeing at least once.

There are a few tips to help you see the beautiful Angkor Wat reflected on the water as the sunrise approaches, so please keep them in mind!

[Sightseeing Points]---
While many people visit to see the sunrise, the most important thing to do to see the beautiful Angkor Wat as seen in the photo is to choose the right time!

Sunrise: Around 5:45 AM
Sunrise from Angkor Wat: Around 6:30 AM
(This may vary slightly depending on the season)

I recommend visiting around 6:30 AM, when the sun rises from Angkor Wat! Many people visit before 6 AM and end up going inside without realizing the peak, but I recommend waiting until around 6:30 AM!
You can see the beautiful reflection of Angkor Wat on the water's surface. ♪

[Caution] ------------
About the Third Corridor...
○ Because you have to climb some very steep stairs to enter, children under 12 and pregnant women are not allowed.

○ Because it is a sacred site, exposed shoulders and knees are not permitted. (A man in shorts always tries to hold his clothes down, but is stopped.)

○ The handrails on the steep stairs are rusty, so wet wipes are essential (your hands will get bright red).
