- Angkor Wat is the largest religious temple in the world! It's in Siem Reap, Cambodia.
We'll visit some of the temples and talk to locals and expats about what's it like living in Cambodia.
my friend @Edog1382 will help me:)

A funny story, I went to Siem Reap in 2002 and it was a sleepy village in the jungle. I got in by bus from Bangkok late at night so I found a guesthouse, down an alley behind a school. There was a Citgo gas station opposite where I bought water and cigarettes. A year later I was back at my job, cutting trees down in Pennsylvania, and on one job the homeowner wanted to talk to me. He was very proud because he had travelled. He told me that he had built a Citgo gas station in Siem Reap, Cambodia. Before I could stop myself I said, "Not the one on Charles De Gaulle Road, opposite the school?" I have never seen anyone so surprised in my life.
That story is amazing. What happened than, life long friendship?
Great tips to share this to the world as a genocide survivor myself from 1975 to 1979 and most of my family members did not survive. We grew up in PP City then were forced to the countryside to work in the rice fields and most of them died from starvation and exhaustion. Only memories live on. Be mindful and be kind whenever possible. Happy travels from Khmer in the US!
my condolences
Most of grandparents family did not survive the German genocide of the 1940s.
I understand only a little of your horrors and I agree we need to be mindful and kind.
One day soon I hope to travel to Cambodia, light some incense and pay honour and tributes to your forebears and ancestors.
We will not forget.
Regards from Australia.

beautiful ❤
I'm so sorry for the horror you must have suffered.
We should all 'be mindful' that what happened in Cambodia is what has happened when every dictator who ever lived was allowed to implement socialism. And basically destroy the very fabric of society.
I was in Cambodia last year. Pretty impressed on the way you are progressing.
Thank for visiting Cambodia. Love your channel. Like many others, I was born into the war raised during it. As you can imagine the horror we had to see as a child. For the first 14 years of my life. the memories still lives on. At that time the whole country was in a complete darkness. Seeing your show how people are interacting with one another buying and selling. such a total difference world. Not the country I was once knew. My hope and dreams, is that one day I would be able to go back and live there without fear from the past.🙏
The movie “Killing Fields” showed the world about the terror the Khmer Rouge let the people of Cambodia suffer.
It is a thing of the past now, but bad memories is still in the mind of the survivors. 🙏🏼😢
I’m a Cambodian. I grown up in the Phnom Penh city. However my love for Siem Reap land always be so extraordinary. It’s always be my magical land. The local are super friendly. People there are living in peace they love one another and live in a calm, respectful and less competitive life.
It’s the place where I can find both combination between ancient traditional rich culture of my own combine with luxury and cool life style amazing food is a plus.
The temples are so much more than the stone. They represent my beautiful cultures. The nature there is absolutely memorable. Many big trees 🌳 huge river beautiful mountains that’s absolutely Beautiful.
Combodia is not a country
@@Ramirez321Wake up lost soul! Get yourself educated about our histories before going around and spread hatred comment. God Bless
This was an AMAZING look at Siem Reap. By far one of the best videos out there, extremely well done! I can't wait to check it out.
me too
Thank you for showing me my country. You were so kind with Cambodian people. I had been Following you everywhere.
As usual, entertaining and informative. Thank you!
I was in Siem Reap back in 2017. First country ive been to as a solo traveller.. I love it there, cant believe ive survived 4 days there without internet on my phone. I wish I could go back, since my country's local budget airlines suspended its direct flight to Siem Reap. I was grateful of my travel experience here
Thank you friends for promoting our Cambodia to the world. Cambodia was once known as the Pearl of Asia but Genocides has rips out the country heart and souls of all Cambodians that’s the reason Cambodia were sipping awhile from the modern world todays Cambodia its revival once again stronger and resilients souls ! may God bless you and all your endeavors 🙏💯🇰🇭❤️
Thank you so much that you went to cambodia❤🇰🇭🇰🇭
You have such a relaxing way to chat with people.
Thank your for your abundant, fine drone overviews and your --- beyond-the-tourist-bubble --- interviews.
I am familiar with greater Siem Reap --- but about 12 years ago.
I stayed in the original Golden Temple Villa for about $15 a night --- near the old market.
Fun and friendly staff indeed!
Thank you kindly!
@@realcoolvision Your video of the middle east is very good but far far to advert heavy!
This was an AMAZING look at Siem Reap.
I love Cambodia. I've been living here for almost 20 years. Great video. What really makes Cambodia a special place are the people, friendliest people in the world.
I recently discovered that the national costumes of Cambodia and Thailand are very similar. Beautiful! 😍😍
That is Thai traditional costume ❤ Siem Reap was one of Thailand before Thailand lost it to France in the past.
That is a great video :) Thank you for sharing our beautiful country to the world.🙏🙏🙏
Ignore the uneducated Thai people in the comments. They are just mad you showed traditional Khmer culture (dresses, dances, etc) in this video. Anyways keep it up! :)
In 2022, your government even said that tourists don't wear the right clothes to enter Angkor Wat, but now people are saying it's your national dress. It's funny.
@@ize9102 Then you must have misunderstood, you're not Khmer, you wouldn't understand Khmer. Don't be making up things to prove your point, its embarrassing.
They mad they can’t be us
THEY BARK LIKE THAT IN EVERY COMMENTS. IN EVERY KHMER VIDEOS. SMH.....
Cambodia number 1
I just returned from Siem Reap Slava. Your video is a great guide for anyone interested in visiting the area. Amazing things you come up with.
I love Cambodia, the people are friendly and welcoming
I loved Siem Reap, and it's great to see a video of someone showing other temples than just ankor wat
Thanks for this video , tbh this is the most informative ive seen EVER on siem reap ,good work
Thank you for the beautiful documentary on Cambodia. What a lovely place with so much culture. I can see so much similarities to South India. Best wishes to Cambodian people.
First visited Siem Riep in 1995. Flew up from PP for a week. Stayed in a small hotel near the center, cheap! Bought a 3 or 4 day pass to the major sights. Had to use an armed guard with a Range Rover! Great time but I see things have changed a lot for tourists! Got back to PP via a boat on the lake & a bus! Anchor Wat is the BEST!
She said before the pandemic, they relied mostly on Chinese tourists, “they like drink coconut juice and lots of shopping”, but western backpackers weren’t spending much coz most of them are poor adventurers, not vacationers like the rich chinese.
rich chinese = poor attitude. sorry to say i'm asian but i don't like chinese tourist
Western backpakers are rich, simply by virtue of the fact they can travel at all, compared the rest of the impoverished billions of people in this world.
Yes... I was there last December. Coming in June to tour Angkor Wat again and other sites.
I'm from Vietnam and it's such a pleasure if you choose Vietnam as the next place to explore.
Great coverage to learn about Cambodia and people's life style. Thank you !
Thank you
Angkor wat is where I want to go someday.
Ethnic odor tempts me to another world.
Thank you so much for your videos. They really have been invaluable to me. Best travel documentaries on TH-cam, 100%!
Wow, thank you!
Lovely people, beautiful country. I really enjoyed that video. Thank you. 👍
Costs need to clarify the currency. "Dollars" is not specific to ONE currency. $60 USD a night to stay in Cambodia is very expensive. You can rent an apartment there for $350 USD for a MONTH. $60 USD is wealthy, wealthy living there.
Thanks bro for visiting Cambodia. We are worming welcome you
I lived in Cambodia for nearly 5 years and I can identify with what the photographer in Siem Reap was saying. I love Southeast Asia also. The atmosphere there is very different for the States. I will be returning to that region of the world. Already have my plane ticket!

Welcome to Cambodia 🇰🇭🇰🇭🇰🇭 ❤🙏🙏
Thank you for this video. My wife and I will be visiting in a few weeks. Everything closes for Tet, so she can't work; it's the only time we get to travel.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Great video!!! 5 Stars!!!
I don’t think King J Aberman VII built any of those Megalithic temples…Seems like he found them and moved into them at that time, and blasted his name everywhere just like the Egyptians did LOL
Great Video none the less!!!!!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Cambodia is the most beautiful culture since Khmer empire period. Thanks for sharing
This was great! I’m going to be there in November traveling from USA

Hello from Cambodia.
Wow, thank for visit my home
i miss Siem Reap.....
เสียม คือ สยามครับ ชนชาติสยามจากที่นักวิชาการกลุ่มหนึ่งของไทยวิเคราะห์ คือคนดั้งเดิม ที่เรียกกันว่า Khom ครับ
Why are you lying . Please stop don’t make thai look more stupid thai already look stupid enough right now
Siem is khom , Cambodian is from Khmer empire
Khom is your mom ,Khmer is your father of Thailand now

Siem Reap means "The Defeat of Siam" during when Cambodia got the province BACK from Siam. Sore losers like you are just mad, and start making up fairytales to try and humiliate the Khmers.
🇰🇭🇺🇸❤️👍 Good Luck and God bless you! Been there before at young age 60 years ago. Thanks to bring old memories back!
This video is just amazing and Cambogia is so beautiful. I love this country and you are really a fantastic reporter! All your videos are wonderful and spectacular. Thank you very much Slava. Greetings from Italy. Take care❤💙💚
Magic!
Retire in Cambodia is the to go, ❤
22.7.2023.First class,very good and best..Thank you.
Sometimes I feel that Cambodians and Vietnamese, in particular, are the most friendly and sincere people. I mean, getting a message for just 3 USD per half an hour? In other parts of the world like the Balkans, Turkey, China, or India, if they see that you're a Central European or North American white, they immediately increase the price tenfold and try to take advantage of you while wearing a smile on their face. Regardless, I would gladly pay 60 USD for an hour-long message, as it's a way of honoring someone's work and respecting the work as I am accustomed to other prices. If I have the means, it's a small act of generosity to support someone else, I would not do that to people that try to scum me in the first place.
Yes they are nice, that's why you dropped napalm bombs all over Vietnam
you can get full body massage for like 6-7 bucks in Indonesia
The courage to live the Cambodian dreams
Beautiful country
thanks for liking our country
Best travel vlogger on the internet
Thanks for sharing sir😍😍🧡🧡
Golden Villa Temple customer service is the best I’ve ever received.
Sir please make a full video on Malaysia🇲🇾 please
Cover is Thai costume not Khmer.
Thai people do not wear dull colored garments. Your thailanders only wear bright colored clothings. You are admiring Khmer too much buddy
Awesome trip, thanks for this info video. I’m looking forward of visiting Angkor Wat. Please visit my country Philippines as well, especially my home island BOHOL.
Thank you Cambodian people who like the Thai national costume more than their own national costume. Sampot is the national costume of Cambodia.
Long live Cambodia !! Amazing
Combodia is not a country even

Thanks for the videos very informative. I always want to learn about my birth country and my ancesters. Just saying the narrator is handsome. Lol
Thank you for maintaining my country 🙏
The taco that both of you ate at minute 10:07 is called Banh Xeo in the South of Viet Nam.

thank for your video
Thanks for visiting Cambodia
Thank you Khmer for liking Thai dress and Thai culture.😁😁😁😘
C'est un grand honneur pour les peuples khmers qu' il y a des touristes USA et Européens viennent en vacances et admirer les temples et apprécier le talent khmer époque Angkor
my most love cambodia area is big siem reap
Very informative.
great vlog sir thanks to cambodia😍
Great video! How did you get those drone shots? I ask because they did not allow me to fly when I was there.
Excellent viewing - Many Thanks 🙏
Welcome to Cambodia 🇰🇭❤
Happy that our neighbor gets more attention. Many countries in SE Asia share similar cultures. I'm from Thailand and I love my neighbors. The Angkor Wat is probably the best cultural heritage in this region. I hope the locals are doing better after COVID and I hope more foreigners find happiness and peace in this ever growing region.
Loverly country you have there, my friends! ❤
Awesome video! Love how you included prices. Are 50$ flats still available/common?
Yes, but difficult to find at that price. A decent room is closer to $80 now.
