📍When you’re in Cambodia, why not spare a morning in the local market? 🇰🇭
This small market (well, not so mall at all) is along the way to the Tonle Sap Lake but they are actived so early in the morning.
I enjoy the walk from the dry concrete to the wet soil and dirt my trousers because what matter most is their livelihood of buy and sell interactions.
You will get to see a random combination in one store and what sell next door that is so unpredictable. I also love how they set it up to sell in a place especially the vegetables section.
Are you interested with the market tour and get it guided in the real local market? Don’t hesitate to reach out via my DM 😉

«Floating Season is slowly comeback now»
As you know we have Tonle Sap, the biggest fresh water lake in SE Asia in the middle of the country, we are enjoying several advantages from that. One among those is the floating village/fishing community for also the tourism industry.
After a few months of dry season, we are now officially in wet season so of course Tonle Sap is slowly filling back the water which make the village by the stream and the edge of Tonle Sap is back with flooding again.
Coming to see the community during the flooding season is something so interesting and so different!
Are you interested with visiting the villages? Feel free to send me a DM for a private excursion!

📍Koh Ker Temple Group in Preah Vihear Province, about 2 Hours aways from Siem Reap, Cambodia.
I wonder whether you ever heard of a Pyramid temple of Cambodia within 35meters height from the ground. It is called Prasat Prang of Koh Ker temple group where you will see plenty other temples in the area. As well during the tour.
Despite the fact that this is also a site of UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE SITE, it is not so busy amd mostly you will see more local tourists than foreigners due to the distance from Siem Reap, but trust me, it really worth the drive and time.
If you really plan to go visiting there from Siem Reap, I would recommend you start your day early so you can have more time to enjoy more places and if possible, stay until sunset so you can see nicer view from the top of Prasat Prang entirely.
The highlights here are my all time must visit there such as Prasat Pram, Prasat Neang Kmao, Trapeang Kna, and Prasat Krochab. There will@be more details provided during the tour.
Feel free Send me a DM regarding the tour and information.

📍Architectural and City Walk in Battambang, Cambodia 🇰🇭
I am a proud citizen of how rich Battambang is. We are rich, not economic meaning but rich in art, food, and architecture aside from it is renowned as the rice bowl of the country.
Here is the sneak peek of Battambang town I did the walk from my recent Khmer New Year holiday.
We can do more than just local village and food tasting but we can also spend our morning or late afternoon roaming around to see not just the lives in town but also the architectural building remaining from pre Colonial, (mostly) colonial, and post colonial time. I am sure you can recognize the colonial building by its style and color (light solid).
You can do just casual city tour or soon you will be able to go deeper and more insightful of the architectural tour in town. I am so excited for this beautiful that gonna be more exciting and more detail explained by the architects themselves.
Are you interested with city tour or architecture tour in Battambang? Have you been to Battambang? You should!

📍Visiting Steung Treng, Cambodia 🇰🇭
To me this is like a market paradise as their local wet-market is never fail to impress me.
It’s always the real life in the local markets, the interaction between sellers and buyers, the smell of fresh fish, vegetables, fruits, flowers, and some other fresh ingredients that got my heart and I am sure, you as a foodie, a market lover, and someone who is interested with local probably understands how exciting this can be.
I highly recommend this local markets if you’re in Steung Treng. This province is rich with natural resources and water diversity as they have a big Mekong River running through the city andgoes along with SeKong River, SeSan River, and Sre Pok River. You can go between Laos and Cambodia within this province land borders as well, so why don’t you spend one or two nights here?

📍The Sunrise Equinox is approaching, and Angkor Wat is the destination 🇰🇭
In just two more days, the special phenomena is about to happen in Angkor Wat (between 20th-22nd March this year) you can go and see the sunrise when the sun is rising right on the main tower. This special sunrise is happening two times per years (March and September)
In the past, our king and ancestors would make the rice ball floating at the Baray (water reservoirs) in order to dedicate to the deceased who died in the battle field and those who didn’t have a proper funeral for the death. They would do it three mornings during the equinox and solstices.
Are you around here during the equinox?
P.s my photos were taken two weeks before the equinox

📍Seeing Sunset in Siem Reap, Cambodia 🇰🇭
I know that beautiful sunset is not everyday and it is not that beautiful sunset can be seen everywhere but at least give it a try!
This is one of my current favorite sunset spot as I like the light reflecting over the water in the moat of Angkor Thom.
This spot is kinda blocked by the trees which mean that the sun down is not the spot to come for but the light comes after is an ideal for me here!
Recently, Sunset is around 6pm which means you can come here probably by 5:30 or 5:45 without ticket (I know this sound cheeky) but still I recommend you buy a ticket as you will still need it anyway 😉
Are you also a SUNSET CHASER? Because I am!

📍Having a slow day aside from Temple amd tour activities in Siem Reap, Cambodia 🇰🇭
What else you can enjoy your half/full free day in Siem Reap when you have/want to take a break from the temple or tour activities to make it a slow day? Maybe cafe?
We have plenty of Cafes in Siem Reap tgese days either in a nice cool with ac cafe, to fan-breathing cafe and outdoor cafe along the riverside!
Besides cafe, you can walk along tge riverside and you might run into a pop up mini library or maybe nicely organized plants and bench! Randomly you can also stop by some of the pagodas along the riverside walk too!
In the evening, maybe you can check out Phnom Krom area where you can drive up for the view of Yonle Sap or around the mountain for the village lives over there!
In Short, Siem Reap is not just about temple and tour activities, but you can also enjoy your slow day here too 😉
