Angkor Wat

There are over 300 temples here in Siem Reap, so our guide helped us choose the best ones to explore in order to maximize our time. We saw an amazing sunrise at Angkor Wat, one of the largest and best preserved temples. Other highlights were Ta Prohm, where the jungle is taking over the temple (Tomb Raider was filmed here), and our favorite, Bayon, with all the faces carved into stone. We finished the day with dinner and a show of traditional dances.
