Just like its other SE Asian compadres, the street food is nothing short of heaven (it is said that Cambodian will eat anything, so watch out for that suspiciously innocuous bag of peanuts you asked for). And of course, no paragraph, book or encyclopedia can suffice to describe Angkor Vat, that jaw-dropping, goose-flesh raising spectacle of still art that tells a million stories and evokes ages and eras and kingdoms and dynasties and faith and devotion beyond human comprehension. Throw in the fact that you may get the best massage in the world for a princely sum of 4 dollars and, well, yes, we can see you tearing up that return ticket.
Peak Season Description:
This season sees an almost Mediterranean-like weather, with cool temperatures perfect for almost any activity. Christmas is a popular time, so book early. The Tonle Sap lake and river stay full until end-March, making river travel fun. April is the time of the Cambodian New Year, when, despite the rising temperatures and rain, festivities are at an all time high.
Shoulder Season Description:
Although May August sees increasing rainfall, it is never in prolonged spells, making it a good time to travel with lesser crowds around temples and other attractions. The tourist trade does not seem to diminish much, as it caters to Europeans on their summer break. Crowds around beaches thin off due to rain.
Low Season Description:
As seasons go, this is the lowest it gets in Cambodia, when rainfall is the heaviest. It still does not deter travelers, as sights and attractions are still open. Rural areas become difficult to access and beaches are pretty much shut because of the weather.
