    Do it right

    Pro tips

    • Beat the Heat: Start at 5:00 AM. By 1:00 PM, the stone radiates heat. Use the afternoon to hit the pool in town.
    • Avoid Scams: Only buy your Angkor Pass from the official government website or official kiosks. Don't trust random links on social media!
    • Dress the Part: Keep shoulders and knees covered. Think light, breathable linen or loose-fitting cotton.
    • Hire a Pro: The stones are just stones without a guide. A licensed historian will bring the carvings to life with stories of gods and kings.
