- Is Angkor Wat worth visiting? Let us show in an in depth look at Angkor Wat Temple in Siem Reap Cambodia so you can decide if it’s worth battling the crowds to see the biggest temple in the world. We also show you another temple in Siem Reap that is a great Angkor Wat alternative, Bantaey Srei. Welcome to Cambodia, DBV Fam!
During our short stay in Siem Reap, Cambodia, the one vlog we wanted to make was a temples of Angkor video. Of course, first up on our list was Angkor Wat. We were initially skeptical of visiting Angkor Wat due to the fact that over 2 million people visit this Khmer temple every year. We couldn’t stop wondering, is Angkor Wat worth visiting? We set out on a mission to let you guys know! When we arrived at the temple, we were pleasantly surprised that there were very few people there. One of our biggest tips to visiting Angkor Wat would be skip the sunrise and head to the temple around noon on a weekday. If you can handle the direct sunlight and heat, you will be rewarded with practically empty temple grounds just like us! Right as we were leaving around 2pm the crowds started flowing into Angkor Wat again right was we were leaving.
Angkor Wat is the biggest temple in the world and it is also known as the best temple in Siem Reap Cambodia. I don’t know if we can whole heartedly agree that it’s the “best” temple, but it certainly is the most famous of the Siem Reap temples. Although ticket prices are steep, $37 for a 1 day pass, the answer to the question is Angkor Wat worth visiting is yes. The temple is certainly worth seeing and the ticket price covers your admission to many other temples in Siem Reap throughout the Angkor Archaeological Park.
We were dead set on finding some temples other than Angkor Wat to show you guys, since it’s so heavily covered already on TH-cam. We found the most beautiful little temple about an hours motorbike ride north of Angkor Wat called Bantaey Srei Temple. Bantaey Srei is a small temple made almost entirely out of pink sandstone which is a gorgeous color and a material suitable for easy carving. The intricate carvings are definitely the highlight of Bantaey Srei. We suggest heading there around golden hour, 3-5pm so you can see the amazing soft light illuminate the pink sandstone. This temple was not crowded when we got there at 4pm, however we did see tour buses leaving when we arrived. Overall, we recommend this as a good Angkor Wat alternative, however you won’t see the grand size of Angkor Wat Temple here. Overall, it’s best to couple Bantaey Srei with Angkor for a full Siem Reap temple experience.
If you have any questions about the history of Angkor Wat, tips for visiting Angkor Wat or anything regarding travel in general, please leave a comment down below! Unfortunately, this is our one and only Cambodia travel vlog as we were very tied up with work over the two weeks we stayed in Siem Reap Cambodia. However, we loved Cambodia so much we are already planning a trip to visit the southern islands. Although we didn’t film, we did a lot of other things during our stay so if you have any questions on what to do in Siem Reap please let us know. Until next time, seeya!

Hindu and Buddhist heritage never disappoint Anyone in the world....
Originally hindu though
shubham hell no . It mix with both the last king that finished this temple is Buddhist
@@chhaylong2086 The initial temples that were built in this complex were Hindu and later converted to Buddhist. The temples that were constructed later have a mix of both.
@@chhaylong2086 If you check carefully the carvings, you can see that it depicts to hindu descriptions.
It's a Vishnu temple
I love your vlog bro Thank for visiting my Country
Where is this temple located

@Guem Ohani u r right bro ..but chozha's god is shiva ..but suryavarman was descendant of chozha's but here is a vishnu temple??..how is this possible...?????

Welcome to Cambodia 🇰🇭
Thank you!! Cambodia has been fantastic. We are planning another stay to explore the southern islands 😊 Welcome to the DBV Fam!
Good
FYI, the Khmer impire is way older than Ayuthaya. These temples were built before the birth of siamese city(Ayuthaya)
Lim Leangheang Well said. Thank you.
Ayodhaya was also a Khmer city but the Thai just change the name to Ayutthaya.
@@supremekhmer6596 What? Ayodhya, is it related to India somehow. In India we also have a city with the same name, it's the city where Bhagwan Rama (the 7th avatar of Lord Vishnu in Hindu mythology) was born.
@@noname13years62 Yes the city of Ayodhaya or Ayutthaya -the old thai capital city is related to Ramayana because Thai Kings are viewed as Rama-the Vishnu's avartar. So the city was named after Rama's city.
Ayuthaya
Ayodya----- Holy city in India . in Northern India in the state of Uttar Pradesh
I'm Cambodian and I'm very thankful you are visiting my country 💚🇰🇭🎊

@@marathon01 Am l the only one who hate you
?
My history teacher used to tell me that some parts of Angkor Wat were covered by gold..
Wow! I’ll be that was beautiful 😊
☺️☺️
Yuppp, I was told like that too.
The whole wall carving and Towers were covered in Gold and Bronze.
It actually was but thanks to climate change and drought the paint itself melted
Look an amazing thank you for sharing,
Thanks you so much for vlogs in Cambodia 😘
SEEN IT 5 TIMES.. I would say YES! Definitely worth it!
Agreed! 👍🏻

Man I want to see the place in person ! Probably cost a lot to fly from the US and back though
Welcome to Cambodia. Thank you guy for coming and visiting our Kingdom
Great video!!! I love it.
I was there last Feb, busy as hell hot as hell. I was also there 17 years ago, I had it to myself. Very few hotels, no Siem Reap nightlife. I've been to over 150 countries, I rate the temple complex at AW 2nd only to the Pyramids.
Finally, its here! I hope I can get tips in your vlog.
We'll visit Ayutthaya too. Seen already the video. Hehehe, so excited for our indochina tour!
Big thanks for sharing your wonderful time in our country and what we have now to the world.

It was our pleasure!! We LOVED Cambodia. Can’t wait to be back ❤️
What a fantastic video. Your work just keeps getting better and better! Cambodia is a bucket list country to visit and watching this makes me wish i was there now! Great job!
Thanks Stephen! This place was awesome and Cambodia in general is a very cool place to visit. Definitely add it to your list 👍🏻
Lovely video
Glad you made it to Siem Reap and the temples of Angkor. Cool vlog guys, I hope to see more of Angkor.
Great video, no wonder Angelina Jolie fell in love with Cambodia when she was there filming her movie. The temple looks like it was built around the Aztec’s era.
It’s hard not to fall in love with this place!! So many temples and although there are plenty of tourists the surrounding area keeps its culture which we love ❤️
Aztec era 15th-16th century A.D. The Khmer Empire era 9th century-15th century A.D. It is a lot more older than the Aztec stuff!
I really enjoyed the vlog! The transition and music are awesome! two thumbs up :)
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed. Welcome to the channel 😊
